testified to by the witness.
So far as our search has extended,
we have found no case where the
conduct and language of one accused
of crime and closely connected
Herewith by evidence could not be-
explained by showing other conduct
to which he himself referred.
One of the grounds of the motion
complains that the verdict is without
evidence to support ii. Another con-
plains that the verdict is contrary 10
the weight of evidence. The court re-
cited in his order everything the mo-
ton for a new trial that he had care
fully considered the original ana
amended motions in rendering the
Judgment denying a new trial
Roan's Expression of Doubt.
The bill of exceptions recites that
the judge orally stated that the jury
had found the defendant guilty; that
he (the judge had thought about this
case more than any other case that
he had ever tried; that he was not
certain of the defendants guilt; that
with all the thought he had put on
this case he was not thoroughly con-
WINGED whether Frank was guilty or
innocent, but that he did not have TO
be convinced; that the jury was con-
WINGED, that there was no room TO
doubt that, that he felt 1t his duty to
order that the motion for a new trial
be overruled."
II is insisted that the remarks made
by the Judge in denying a new trial
indicated judicial disapproval of the
verdict. We do not think so. The
Jury found the accused guilty. The
court was called upon to determine
whether under the record the defend
ant should be granted q new trial.
He refused 1t, and the rule in such
cases is hat even II the court should
consider a case weak, yet, if he over
rules the motion for a new trial, one
ground of which is that the verdict is
contrary TO law and evidence, his le-
gal Judgment expressed In overruling
the motion will control; and if there
is sufficient evidence to support the
verdict this court Will not interfere
because of the judges own expression
as TO his opinion.
Request to Charge.
The lower court declined to give the
following request to charge: mo
presumption can arise against the de-
PENDANT because of failure to cross
examine any witness put. up by the
State, that the defendant was guilty

the Supreme Courts attitude:
We have attempted to go through
various assignments of error so as TO
bring the opinion within reasonable
bounds. Some of the points are
deemed of minor Importance, not
amounting to error. and some of them
were not referred to in the briefs,
and therefore no specific reference is

That the negro population in Ell

tanned an excellent standing. His
classmates say that Sam was most
human and tell that the students
would go to Mr.. Gould for advice and
help. They relate stories OF how he
would even loan his best suit of
clothes and best shoes to some poorer
student who wanted to attend some
entertainment and he would stay at
home while the fellow was wearing
his clothes and having a good time.
Leaving college, he went back to his
home town and began the study Of law
in the office of Aver & Clifford in Cor
nish. After he was admitted to the
oxford bar, E. F. Danforth, who had
been a classmate in college, induced
him to go to Skowhegan and about
1880 he began the practice of law in
Skowhegan, where he has since re-
mf.ined.
In 1910 he was elected to Congress
from the Sd District He has always
been a Democrat and has been a per-
'sistent fighter for the Democratic
cause and worked hard when the
party was in the lean minority in
Maine. He had been a candidate for
Governor. He was defeated in his
second run for Congress by Hon. For
rest Goodwin in 1912. On the death
of Mr.. Goodwin he sought the nomi-
nation on the Democratic ticket but
was defeated by Hon. w. r. Pattan-
gall. Since then he has carried on
his law practice and engaged in the
grocery and furniture business. He
had taken considerable pride in aiding
young men to go to college and has
financially benefited Is boys who have
received college diplomas. He is mar
ried but has no children. His mother
now lives in Hiram and is 96 years
old, being the oldest resident of the
