ous good character.
His Lordship ill refusing the appli-_
catloll stated that ill previous years! this court had seen lit to suspend' sentence in several cases in the hope' that it would have the same effect as if the sentence had been carried out` in the lessening of crillle.The criulinal` docket at this term did not show any’ decided difference and if the lessen-' ing of crime is to be looked for thc on-I ly mode seems to llc the carrying out lf the sentences ol’ the Court. llls Lordship in passing sentence address-

Your crime was one of the most sc- rious ever committed in this province. and must of necessity have been com- mitted with ull abandonment of feel- ing tortunately but seldom found ill o civilized conlmunlty. ‘ You have had a fair and impartial

The duty of passing sentence upon
you for this grave crime is now cast upon me_ and it is my part to pro- -nounce such sentence as the law di- rects in the case of murder. Tile sentence of this Court is. that you, Malcolm McPherson, he confined in the common jail or prison of thil County of Prince and thcre kept in safe custody henceforth until the time of the execution of this sentence upon you; and that on Thursday. the se- venth day of September next. within the welll of the laid Prince County Jail or prison, between the hours of ‘ six o'clock in the forenoon and 12 o'- olock noon. of that day, you he there hanged by the neck until you are dead. and may God have mercy upon your

Tile Jury have accompanied thlel.
verdict with a strong recommendation to mercy. The maximum term of lm- prisonrnent provided by the criminal law of Canada for the offence of which you have been found guilty is nine years. Desirlng to give effect to the Jul'y’s strong recommendation, and in consideration of your youth and in tile fervent hope that the ter`ln of im- prisonment which I am about to im- pose may have the effect of leading you to see the error of your ways and to realise that honesty in all your dol- iings is the true path to success, I have determined to make the period ot your imprisonment much shorter than the maximum provided as above.
Tile sentence of the Court is, that
you Louis Acker and Benjamin Miller be each imprisoned in the Penetelr tiary at Dorchester, in the Province of New Brunswick, for the term of tw., years.
