' Tbe eaM , went to the jury about 3 'clock. At 6 -o'clock tbe jury notified (he Sher iff that . they were ready to report. - Judge ildami .re-convened eoart and Ihe verdict of pilty of manslaughter v wai announced. The prisoner, who wm in court with bis brother and father, received tbe rerdkt with no . visible show of emotion. - . . ," v En-Judge F. L Osborne moved that tbe defendant be held until next day " under ' big present ' bond but" Judge Adams ordered that tie bejlaeed in the custody of tbe Sheriff and be . was remanded to jail. , The jury waa out three boors. : The main question on which they failed to i reach an agreement during that time m as to whether the defendant was guilty of murder in the second degree or manslaughter. The first . ballot , stood ten for murder in the second degree and two for acquittal After that the ballots showed six for murder in the second degree and sis foi manslsu'jrhtsr. After ' ballotins ,-fcr three hours this way and just as the evening shades were drawn and the day was eoming to a close, the twelve men sgreed. upon the young boy's fste and returned tbeir verdict of guilty of manslaughter. -i Tbe trial which lasted three days wm narked for the speed which ' the work of the court progressed and was altogether free - from " lengthy . tilts between counsel. A remarkable feature Of it waa the faot that not a single objection was filed by counsel on either side. ' Judge : Adams also has the distinction of presiding at ease in Halifax eouhiy where the defendant was on trial for hit life for wife murder and. there were no objections filed. - ' - ' The trial of Henry Moore, colored, ehanred with' burning the. house of Tim Ellis, colored, last month, is now in ' progress.

Immediately after court convened after dinner Judge Adams "beard counsel in the Goodman ease. Judge Osborne made a STrong'plea for 'mercy -tor. the defendant. He was followed by Judge Montgomery' for the Stat. In sentencing the young man Judge Adams said: "In my experience the question of punishment gives me more trouble than all other legal matters. In each there is always mitigating or aggravating circumstances and in this ease there seems to be certain mitigating circum stances in favor of tbe defendant, I am inclined to think that bad andth : er tnan there bad any cartridges there would ,bave been another mur der.? As long aa a young man puts a - pistol in his pocket and drinks liquor : we (nay look for funerals. There is one" thing that appeals to me in the defendant and that is bis youth. I . realise) that bis surroundings were not . ; conductive to '" good behavior. ' I am not .going to give him an excessive ; sentence : but an example should be - made in such eases. Mr. Clerk, make the ffutry that the defendant be con- ' fined in the State penitentiary for three years and six months at hard 'labor1." ...V Cdjjinsel for tbe State told the court than there was an act that required . prisoners sentenced for less than ten year? in this eonnty be worked on the . ' public read.'7 Judge Osborne said that if there was such an act it was un constitutional and that he preferred thatibia client go to the penitentiary. . Theqaet was produced and it showed Miafit was mandatory and Judge. Ad amsohanged ' the sentence td-' tbe ,; county roads for tbe same length of time; . : ; - Cponsel for defense made motion . - for appeal to Supreme Court. The mo tion was overruled and the defend- ' ant bond" was fixed at $IO;000. .After Quickest Trial en Record, In dian it Sentenced to Death Nov. 24. Aehevllle, Oct. 27.

Te the Honorable W. J. Adams, Judge Presiding: We, tbe Orsad Jurors of tbe Octo ber term of eonrt, 1911, beg leave to submit tbe following report : Ve have acted apon all wills of in dictment sent as from the Solicitor snd made presentments of all viola tions of. the lawf that' have been brought to ewr notice. We have visited tbe county jail in a body, and find tbe 10 prisoners in in number well eared for. The jail is well kept, but the building is in bad condition and do not think it wise to spend any more money on repairs and heartily recommend tbe building of a new jaiL ' We also find that the jailer is badly in need of a 'phone and suggest tbat tbe' eonnty put one in at ones. - v ' . - v . . . . 1 ' : The ehainnnff was visited1 and find the 10 white and 27 colored con victs, 15 mules,' 4 bogs, 223 pounds each, nine two horse wagons and one one-horse wagon, all in excellent con dition. The sanitary condition of the camp is very good. - We visited the county home by com mittee and find the 10 white and 7 colored inmates well eared for. Plenty of heading and sanitary conditions as welas could be expected without wa ter works.' Would suggest that the county install water works as soon as possible. The 4 .milk cows, 4 year lings, 28 hogs, and 2 mules are fine stock and in excellent condition. They are buying meat now. Have plenty of corn and feed for tbe year and a sufficient quantity of wheat to last until next harvest. : The buildings have been recovered and repaired generally, and eonstdering the condi tions, are in as good shape as could be expected. A new range has been installed and we find that it is inade quate for the desired purposes. In looking over the farm we find that there is not enough stock to cultivate the land as it should be, and further more believe that it would pay the county to buy two additional mules. We visited the office of County Treasurer and find tbat the proper entries by School Commissioner and Justice of the Peace have been made and the books well kept. The various offices in the. court house were visited and found in good condition, except the Register of Deeds office and there we find the safe entirely too small, books and records being erowdediR..tbA. same to such h extent that' they are being very much damaged. We heartily recom mend that the safe be enlarged and the office be made tire proof, similar to that of the Clerk of the Court's office. Having completed our duty we re spectfully ask that we be discharged. W. J BEUj, foreman. Stanly County News. Albemarle Enterprise. .
