JUDGE BULLocK's DECISION
CONTINUED from Third Page)


practice of moonshine selling. The
trial Of the homicide case in which
Langford was involved. has shown
that he is what is sometimes called a
most monumental liar True, in that
case, he seemed to be corroborated by
the testimony of witness of appar-
|ent high standing, as to some of his
testimony.
There was every inducement TO such
person as Langford to say anything
that he believed would. in any degree,
tend toward securing for him some
|clemency.
The sentence imposed was IN every
possible way extreme in severity. The
record is silent as to any atrocious-
ness other than that Of the very act
itself and it seems to have been the
first criminal violation Of the law by
defendant, Necessarily the evidence
was intimately associated with the
brutal assassination referred to, be-
cause of Langford's testimony. The
sentence was within the letter of the
law. There may be open to the de-
PENDANT other remedies, but do not
find that an appellate court would be
justified in acting in such matter.
Some authority has been cited as to
the Prescriptions in favor of the
judgment of the lower court being
correct. On this point it is sufficient
to refer to the provisions of Chapter
l7841 of the acts of 1920, requiring the
appellate court to shear and deter
mine the errors assigned without re.
gard to any presumption being In
dulged in support of the correctness
of the judgment appealed FROM"
For the reasons assigned the judg.
ment is reversed and new triai
granted the defendant.
It is considered and ordered that the
lcounty Judge for Marion county, Flor.
ida, do set aside the verdict and grant
a new trial and that the clerk of this
court to transmit, within not less thar
ten nor more than thirty days the
entire original record sent up in this
cause, including this order, to the
court of the county Judge for Marion
county, Florida, under his hand ant
seal of Office.
