Well, but the judge said he was a dangerous man, and he served out
his fourteen years in Millbank prison. And now he comes here,
having become a great mimic, a wonderful actor, and coolly and
deliberately tries to mimic the life of poor Pat O'Sullivan away."

At this point, on the suggestion of Mr. Forrest, a recess was
taken.

Before the jury retired, Juror Culver expressed a desire to take
the map of Lake View introduced in evidence along with him. Mr.
Forrest said he could have it, but Bailiff Santa interfered and
said it could not be done without the sanction of the Court. Mr.
Forrest turned to the judge and said as neither the State nor the

detected him, and believing he was a spy captured him and sentenced
him to death. They tumbled him over the brow of the cliff, and his
body was dashed to pieces on the jagged rocks below. A rope was
used in the execution, and on this fact the lawyer laid especial
stress, but jus
