"Guilty of murder in the second de
gree" was the verdict rendered in the
case of the State vs. Lee Git. The in
terest in the trial culminated Saturday
afternoon and evening when the argu
ments of the attorneys were made to the
jury. A. F. Sears, jr., of Portland made
the opening argument for the state and
proved himeelf a speaker of much abil
ity. He reviewed the evidence in detail
and claimed it was sufficient to justify. a
verdict of murder in the first degree be
ing given. Mr. Sears is a rapid speaker
and chooses his language with precision
and good effect. At times he rises to
eloquence and in portraying some of the
scenes disclosed by the evidence was
very effective. He made a strong im
pression both on the jury and spectators.
He was followed by Mr. H. S. Wilson,
who plead - the cause of the defense.
After referring in a jocose way to some
parts in Mr. Sears' argument, Mr. Wil
son passed on to the merits of the case.
He stated that the state had failed to
show any premeditation and character
ized t ho identification of the defendant
by the dying man as deficient. " Mr.
Wilson's style of speaking is totally
different from Mr. Sears', but is no less
effective. He ia cool, dispassionate and
logical, at times witty and dealing in a
touch of sarcasm. His argument made
an undoubted impression on the jury
and was well received by all who heard
him. At the close of Mr. Wilson's speech
Judge Bradshaw declared a recess till 7
o'clock.
Upon the re-assembling of court Mr,
B. S. Huntington addressed the court
upon, some instructions which the de
fendant asked the court to give and then
gave his attention to the jury. Mr
Hunt'ngton spoke for an hour and a half
and won the closest attention of the jury
and the interest of the crowded court
room. He spoke of the great responui
bility which lay upon the jury and the
attorneys in the case and said it was one
which - no one would wish to take upon
himself. Mr. Huntington went care
fully over the testimony and declared
that any verdict which would take away
tne me ot the detendant would be un
just. Granting that a murder had been
committed Mr. Huntington said it was
possible that another hand bad com
mitted it than the hand of the defend
ant. Mr. Huntington spoke earnestly
and added much to his reputation as an
advocate. Prosecuting Attorney Jayne
closed the case for the state and made a
good argument to the jury. In review
ing the evidence for the-state be said the
chain connecting the defendant waa com
plete and a verdict of guilty aa charged
was what the Btate demanded and felt
itself-entitled to. His argument was
strong and perfectly fair, being free
from any bias. After the instructions
from the court the jury retired at 9 ;30 to
deliberate. The crowd hung around the
courtroom till after 11 o'clock, when the
most of the spectators went home. At
half past twelve a knock was heard upon
the jury door and when the judge and
counsel arrived the verdict was received.
Lee Git, the defendant, waa overjoyed
at the termination of the case and when
the intelligence had been conveyed to
him made no attempt to conceal hia
pleasure. He thanked the jury individ
ually and collectively, shaking hands
with each man with fervor. . He has
probably felt his neck a dozen times to
be sure he had it on.
