asked the members of the jury to dc
the same.
Court Holds Breath


Now, gentlemen Of the jury, We
will wait minute Sullivan said.
There was almost q breathlcss
pause in the count room, The mem
bers OF the jury glanced at Their
watches. Sullivan strobe to the bench
and slowly drank a glass Of water
The minute passed.
Gentlemen, that Is the longest
minute that you have ever passed,
Sullivan said as he showed that the
average persons judgment of passing
time erred.
IF Webb knew that the shooting
was accidental. why didn't he call to
his best friend, Ray Potter. Tor help
as he lay bleeding to death in the
gutter?'' Sullivan asked the jury.
Rccitcs Dying Words
MARY, I'm shot, I'm dying Webb's
words at the time Of the shooting
Sullivan commended, proved that Webb
knew that Potter had shot him in
tentlonally.
Sullivan said that the motive foy
the shooting was obscure but that
the state did not have to prove q mo-
tive to obtain a conviction.
Potter followed every word and ges-
ture Of Sullivan intently, scarcely
moving during the one hour and q
half dramatic argument to the jury
At intervals he munched cough drops
Only at the biblical close did he show
sigIis Of agitation when he paled per-
ceptibly and clinched his hands.
The court room was packed on the
final day of jury arguments by the
opposing counsel. Collapsible seats
were utilized for the overflow while
many persons stood in the corridor
It was an orderly crowd.
Potter has been on trial for the last
four days. The trial started two
weeks ago but was adjourned twice
Cnce because of the illness of Mrs
Potter and again because of the death
of a jurors wife.
