the fact that crimes of this nature are
common, is one OF the significant
faults of the present day.

are places in this country. where an
enraged populace, ). airing that tie
punis hment of the law would not be
severe would have dealt with you il
summary fashion.
"Thc case under consideration Is
particularly offensive when the ag:
OF the girl Is considered. You have
committed daninah!e, offensive
crime and it would be miscarriage oi
justice if you were not to be punished
for that cr.sle. ..
