LANGDON, J., Dissenting.
I dissent.
The question here involved is not the guilt or inncoence of Thomas J. Mooney. The issue, as defined by the United States Supreme Court, is whether he was accorded due process of law on his trial for murder. (Mooney v. Holohan, 294 U. S. 103 [55 Sup. Ct. 340, 79 L. Ed. 791, 98 A. L. R 406].)
In this dissenting opinion, no useful purpose would be served by reviewing the evidence. The preponderance of the material, credible evidence in the record leads me to *86conclude that on his trial petitioner was not accorded due process of law.
For that reason, the writ of habeas corpus should issue.
