The holding is as follows:
"Affidavits OF jurors that they have
been unduly influenced by their fellows
or of the reasons for dissenting to the
verdict or of improper arguments re-
sorted to in the jury room or that they
did not assent to the verdict or that 1t
was not the result Of their deliberate

incompetent and cannot be received to
impeach the jury's findings.
Jurors after having agreed to a ver-
dict cannot In order to have it set
aside, explain by affidavit the grounds
or train of reasoning by which they
arrived at their result. Should affi-
davits of this character be entertained
few verdicts would stand as some jur-
ors would be found in most cases who
would allege as mistake Of law or fact
what were really after thoughts sug-
gested by defeated party or counsel"
With this ruling staring them in the
face it is not likely that the attorneys
for the defense will attempt to push
their case, as far as the three affi-
davits are concerned.
