Take, for Instance, the jury in the re­ cent Whitfield murder case here, denounced by Prosecutor E. C. Stanton and Trial Judge Frank Phillips for returning-' “the most weak-kneed verdict in the history of Cuyahogo County courts.” The jury, composed of nine men and three womefk, after listening to testimony and arguments pf coun­ sel for nearly three weeks, de­ liberated for eight hours and then brought in a verdict of “guilty of murder in , the first- degree as charged in the indict­ ment”— but the verdict was tem­ pered with a recommendation, for mercy. And therein lies the week-kneed part. “This verdict,” said Judge Phil­ lips as he pronounced sentence, “leads me to believe that no jury will bring in a death verdict in the face of any conceivable set, • AU f u tu r e « « t o . w here, an, a d m issio n c h a rg e is , u rf t h | . w(1(.k E ffo rta of circumstances.

No results of Mr. Sweuning’s prowes3 as a hunter materializing the family came home, but Mr. Swenning went again and just re­ turned to Ashland last night— sans» a deer. He will doubtless go again, and with better luck, it is hoped. The Swenning’s left Ashland June the thirteenth, and spent the summer traveling and visiting relatives and friends. They toured over fifteen states, going as far east as Chicago and south to New Mexico. After a few days’ rest here at home, they made the Diamond Lake trip. Miss MiUlcent Pfeiffer, a niece who accompanied them on this summer’s trip, left Monday or this week to attend Institute at •Yreka, California. After its close, she will go to her »chool at McCloud, which op­ ens Monday, next.
