 Judge Brannon closed his eyes for a moment. He scratched some thing on the file before him and said quietly:

 He strode into the chambers at the side of his bench while the police sergeant and MT South erland gasped. Jenkins said noth- ing. With head still bowed he shuffled from the courtroom
 A cub reporter strolled into chambers and saw the judge gazing from the window, puffing at 8 black cigar. With the impetuous- ness of youth he approached the jurist and bluntly asked: Judge, that guy sure looked guilty to me. Why did you think him innocent?"
 The judge turned and was about to make an angry retort at the te- merity of the boy. Then he smiled. Only his personal bailiff and the boy were in the room.
 "Son," smiled the judge, T know he was guilty" The youths face was a picture of amazement.
