_‘_ MB. PALMER'S ADDRESS.

#Reported by The Guardian.)

our Lordship: Gentlemen of the

.1\.p'y: f am sure that you are glad the investigation is coming to an end. You have Siven this matter careful attention-1 know of no case where more attention has b-en gii en than to what has transpired here. Gentlemen, I think this was nices- sary_ for this is a most important case; a case which will go down, in one way or another as a precedent by reason of the fact that it is the first case of the kind in the history of this Provin`ee_where a plea of in- sanity has been fought out in the Supreme- Court. For that reason, gentlemen, it is an important case.

Although it has been termed a col-

lateral issue-not the trial on indict- ment. it is not the less important on that account. There is a grave is- sue at stake in this case. You have to decide whether or not the prison- er is sane enough to take his trial -whether he is sane or insane- whether he is able to understand the nature of his trial, or to instruct his counsel. I have no doubt you recog- nise this I will not weary you by

going over the evidence.

What. the Crown has to do in this

case is this. There must he no mis- carriage of Justice._ We have to put before you every scintilla of evidence; every fact; and throw such light op- on _it'as to enable you to' come to some understanding as to the tit- nessof the prisoner at the har to stand his trial. That is all. We do not' wish to make any insinuations such as my learned friend the coun- sel for defence suggested. I am sure that when we realize the de- plorable- condition of yonder man- the _prisoner at the bar-all our sym-

pathies must go out to him.

At the same time it is my duty to

the Crown to see that there is no misunderstanding about this. If you find that the prisoner is insane we will be satisfied with your verdict; we shall know that we have done our duty. Further than that, gentlemen, we do not intend to go. Nothing is further from our thoughts. We do not want to influence you, God
