After being out for forty-eight
hours the jury in the case of DR.. 8.
F. Love, charged with the murder Of
u. S. Carmichael, at Morgan City in
1914, late yesterday afternoon report
ed to Judge Everett that they were
unable to agree on verdict. The jury
stood seven for conviction and five for
acquittal. It is the second time since
the fatal Christmas Eve when the
tragedy occurred that jury has been
unable to agree on q, verdict and a
mistrial declared.
The case was given to the jury at
five o'clock Saturday afternoon after
two days of hard work selecting
jury, taking testimony and arguing
the case. Much interest was mani
tested in the case throughout and
when it was reported yesterday morn
ing that Judge Everett would hold the
jury until a verdict either for con-
viction or acquittal was reached the
interest was keyed up to the highest
pitch. The report proved to be un-
founded, the Judge having had no
such intention.
