Butthere w“ in certain amount of confusion in 4 tiie evidence as to the events which took place. The jury gave careful and fair consideration to the evidence and, I have no doubt, nriivcd at their verdict by giving you the benefit of the doubt. If they had seen fit to convict you it would have been a legal ver- dict." The judge said he trusted that he would not take the ver- iiict- as acquittal from nil blame. 11c hoped it would serve as a warning to abstain from quarrels o! this kind. He said he trusted this unfortunate event will be a lesson to the whole community to rive together in more neighbor- ly fashion. When the court convened in the morning three final witnesses wrre heard for the defence: Henry 11150181’, James Hustler, Sr., and the accused himself.

He told thc jury that if they found that the Ccstains were the aggressors and still find that the accused useo unreasonable force they must find h.:n guilty, "The merits or faults of the Costains have, little bear- ing on your decision." he said. He explained that the accused was faced with two charges. lst_ thbt of causing grevious bodily harm with intent to do injury and the second, that of simply causing grevious bodily harm. He explain- ed that in the second count it was not necessary to prove an inten- tit-n to injure Elmer Costain but that it. was done by carelessness. As to the evidence he said that neither side has takentiie Cour‘. and jury entirely into its full con- fidence. The two stories are so conflicting that he couldn't con- ceiys of either one as being en- tlreiy the truth. " The judge iv.- viewed the evidence at length and pointed out that Costaln had been shot in thc rear. The jury retir- ed st 4.17 and returned at 4.56 with s verdict of not guilty on the first count and .they read e written verdict on the second count which the court ruled was contradictory as to its terms and couldn't he axeptcd. To assist the jury he asked two questions which be later reduced to one. "Did ths sc- cused exercise due precautions to prevent danger to human life."
