Yet when he

peers, Ile dlid not. as bc expected, break down-give way to those surging feelings of relief wlliell must. have fairly racked his bos- om. Not so. His demeanor, it must honestly he said, was calm and dignified, There was just tile sus- picion of a smilie :llbove his lips as he grasped the outstretched hands of botll his counsels.

Tile allllres-ses lly counsel and
his Lordship occupied the whole day. At 10 o'clock Mr, Saunders rose llnd hold tile floor until 12.45 The speech of the senior counsel for the llefollco may only be des- cribed as :l masterpiece. Eloquent tllrollgholll. at time he rose to such heights nf passionate orutory that the members of the jury and spectators were' visibly m0V€tl Nl tears.

That was when tllcro was an nbllnllailce of circlllllstzlllces which left no room for rcasonallle doubt. “(‘|l‘cixlnstllni-.es cannot lie," he said, “while ivitncsses wilo have direct evidence to offer, can, In thc present case there were lnaliy <-irculllstauces and- he left lt. to the jury to lieeido whether they were sufficiently strong to war- rant n conviction. Tile evidence of Dr, McTaggar_i was dwelt on at conslderallle length by counsel for _ the Crown, and Ile pointed out the leading featilres as they occurred in evidence. ’l‘Ile conduct of thc ilfftfilsetl after he had reported tho tragelly and his stntenlent that. his wife had cut her throat. when. as counsel maintained, he could not have been aware nf the fact. together with ills neglect to ex- amine her bod-y, lr brought bc- fore the jury as points well merit- Ing their consi<lera" ’ 'Tile blood- _soakell garment ll tile laundry bag, he referred to as :l damaging circumstance.

` Dllring tile course of ills all- dress Mr, Jollllsiou made an at- tack upon I)l'. McPhee and was sllbsellllelitly rebuked by his Lord- ship, "I never saw such a llolcll of an alltops-y," said the Attorney -(ielieral. and he went oil to rtifef to tho tact that the doctors who performed that duty did not even know that. the jugular vein had not been cut. “It has put the coilniry to a great deal of DX- pellse in going llbroud to rectify the error, made by Ilr. l\‘Icl‘llec."

HIS LORDSH|P'S ADDRESS
The substance ot the iltltl\‘i‘.=s t0
the jury_hy his Lordship was that .tlluy must. i‘irs't decide. wlletller the lleceilseil calne to her death by suicide. For this theory much evi- dence had beeri sllbmittell. The i-ltnteillents made at various times ily the lleceilsell in thc form of tllreals, for instance, those made tn Mrs. Doyle. were ailnllssilblc. She _had previously spoken of drownillg herself alld had eXDl`l‘S~ sed wishes that she could die. lf the jury llecldetl on this tl\f‘\"f‘ Wil-“ no need to go farther. If there was dtsagrcelnent on that score the benefit of the doubt should bc given to the prisoner. Iiut iftIle.V concluded that ll Won H0! 5\ll"lfl“ but mill-der then they must de- cide if the prisoner at. the bar was the guilty party. The evidence of Ilr Mc'I`a garf was only valuable
give his exhert 0Dl\"ll0Il Wllelhfl” the wound could be callsell by this or that ingllcment. Whether any nal-ttclllar instrument was used 'lt was for the jury to decide. Dr. l\lc'l`alrlnlrt had stated that it .WHS possible for the deceased in ht\V0 ' used one of the razors lifter ll cor- ‘tuin fashion. His Lorllslllp rc- |luarked very favorably on the <~barllc'ter and military record of the accused.
Commenting on the McPhee in-
cident his Lordship said that the remarks of the Attorney General were quite unclllled for and that he saw no reason for the censure nillllilllstcrml. Ile had fulfilled th
P
duties required of htm qulto satis-
. . g _ .
up to the point where he could,
Mr. Saunders in opening his all-
dress said that he did so with great confidence llut not without solne llnxiety. Ile states that there was :l grellt barrier of improba- Ilillty between tlleln and a vi-rlllct of.adverse tn the prisoner. 'l‘lle first. tiling- tllllt should. occupy their attention when they retired to thi- jury roonl was the lluestion of proof; will-tller the Crown had sllhstillltiatell its cnse_ Mr. Saun- llers then ilgreoll to the evident-e l_ll the prlsoller himself ill straight forward statements and the oh- vlous truth of ills testimony.
Criticlzlng the press the coun-
sel for the llefence Saill that it. elitlezlvlweli to satisfy the taste of the pttblic for sensation at the ox- pense of the prisoner at the bar. it tlley`llitIn't actually try to clin- vey an impression ot' gllilt they cndeavorell to show that at least. he drove the llnfortllnate woman to sllicille. Ile llopell that the jury would not be influenced by what the press illtilllatcd.
After maintaining that tho cir-
cilmstantial evidenco as adduced for the Crown was very weak. Mr. Saunders went oil to discuss the testimony of the family. It woillll be inconceivable, he as- serted, for the mother and sisters to go on the stand and lllilnufae- ture the evidence they gave in such li clear and unllcsltzlting man ner. in addition their testimony was fully substantiated by inde- pendent lvitllesse-s_ the neighbors ot’ the fflllllly.
The history -of the tleccascd next occupied the attention of the eoilnsel for the defence. After spending tlllrty years in the nn. vlronlllqllt of 'Lonilllll, llrigllton llnd Worthing with all their lit- tendent surroundings and 'its at- mosphere of life she crime to liar- luolly at a disagreeable time of the year when everything tended to create llolnesleknl-ss and lllel- nliclloly. The result was as would have been naturally expected. The tcSllIii0YiY of Mrs. Agnes Yen, her own clllilli, indicated tim rnn of events.
Mr. Saunders with great pathos
described the life of the deceased among the Ellis family the var- ious incidents in which the late Mrs. Ellis sllowcll her temper anll depression plainly indicitted, he said, the state nf her mind This was eniphrlsized ily her state ment on one occasion that she in- tended in drown Ilel'se.ll‘. To Annie Mffllollgllli she saili she was ter- ribly Ionely wished she had never eollle to the country; to Mr. Me.- Iielllin she went sobbing throwing her arms around her neck and cry ing out her distress. Then there was the tcstllllony nf tiiinplng nnm say who said Ile was nfl-:lid of Iler -tl\0lll»rllt‘Iil~r lleml-nted_ Sllc even told the Ilalnsays that silo wanted to go out to the barn and sleep among the animals. Iier collduct was such that he was afraid to look for her on the next morlllng. for fear Ile would find her body. So we have a most extraordinary and- in most. eccentric woman," said counsel-and went on furth- er to demonstrate her strange con llition or mind. She would not go to ehnrcll, to sorials and otllcr entertalnlllents and gatherings.
“On Janilary (itll last sllc came
down to Sullllllerside and meets Mlrs. Doyle and what docs she sity: “I wish I were dead. If there was rl hole in the ice out there I would jump ln." Is that all she said? No! She tolli Mrs Doyle that she was going hack to Iliirlllolly, that sho was going to pllt. Ill-r trunk against the door and that Slit? WHS Ilfllllll to cut her throat." Then what did she do.'!" contin- ued counsel impressively. “She Went back to I-Iarlllony, she pllt. her trunk against the door and she cut her tllrollt."
After referring to the comfort-
-'title and sanitary conditions of the lllilis llollle and the attitude of the fanlily toward the lleceascd; their point of leaving her to her-‘ self (luring her fits of depression Mr. Saunders stated that the fact that the deceased had committed unnatural offences still further ln- lllcatcd her nature and condition.
Counsel described the events of the morning of .`Ianlla'l*y 'lifIi',`Tit'c" scuffle which most certainly took place and her ileternlinell trip to Sumlnersllle in an agitatcll frame of lllind under adverse clreumstan ces. Iler return and attack upon her llllsband with el butcher knife and stick of wood and hor subse- quent departure from the house was dilated on at length by collu- sel. Defending the prisoners conduct in not going after her Mr. Saunders said that Ellis real-
any other man. IJ rllidilion he ex-
it few monlents. _
-Discussing thc cllaracter of ill
accused Mr. Saunders stated tha the Crown had had detectives on thc case since tho beginning- "hloollilollnds" ho called tilem-
