Ralsiqh. N. C.May 10. In the mattei
of Charles Bobo, convicted of murder in
first degree, at the February term, 1807
of Craven criminal court, and sentenced
.0 lie hanged,
Commutation to imprisonment for life
8 strongly urged by the trial Judg-: unrt
y the Solicitor who proseculod; by many
eading lawyers, physicians and citizens
f New Berne, and by the County officers
f Craven county. It appears that the
lomlcide was not premeditated, that
there was a fight between the prisoner
intl the deceased after which the prisoner
n the heat of blood, got a pistol, renew
jd the fii'lit in the course of which he
Irew his pistol and killed. The worst
eaturc about it is that he fired at the de
-eased twice and fired in tnc midst of a
:rowd of bystanders. But all this was
n passion and the entire affair occurred
within a period of five minutes. Our law
.mposcs capital punishment only for pre
meditated killing. It is to be presumed
chat the trial court would have vacated
thu verdict but for the consideration
chat it involved a delay au 1 expense and
inconvenience of a new trial, all of which
could be avoided by an Executive corn
nutation. Let the sentence be commuted to im
risonment for life.
