,. Logan declared that the deputy dis

court to legislate an act into a crlm-j
In order to send Warriner to the penl-

;JHls argument was that the Indict

weapon, he said.
I He contended that before a man
could 'be charged with assault with a

with intent to do the crime.
FlUgerald confined his argument to
objections to the form of the Indict
