morning, the following sentence was .
{Pronounced on James Brady, con.
victed of burglary. Judge Caldwell .
ordered the prisoner.to stamd up, .
When he thts ad@resséed him:
“You have been indicted by the!
Grand Jury fof the crime of burglary. .
To. this indictment you! plead not
. guilty, You} have been tried upon .
this charge by a jury of your own sé .
lection, and have been found guilty,

dictment. Have you anything to .
say why judgment should not be pro.
nounced upon-you?”
Mr. L. W. Williams, ¢ounsel for .
Brady, replied’ that there was some .
cause why the extreme penalty of the .
law should .not be pronounced
against-the defendant. He proceedea to show that; though the conclusion arrived at by the Court and jury could not now be questioned, yet
from the absenée of any aggravated
circumstances, and from the fact that
there had been no terror of: life or
loss of property, while the minimum
of punishment provided by the law
would perhaps be too little, the maximum would certainly be: too severe.
Judge Caldwell. then proceeded to
pass sentence, as fellows:
“J think myself that the maximum
punishment inflicted by the statute,
the extreme penalty laid down, would
perhaps ‘be tod much~in this case.
As the counsel for the defendant bas
said, there are not those aggravated
circumstances attending this case
which usually attend the commission
of the-crime of burglary. Of the defendant’s guilt in this case I haye no
doubt, The testimony of Mrs, Davidson is certain and conclusive, and
her testimony seems to be corroborated by the testimony .of one or two
surrounding circnnistances which appeared upon the trial. The crime
of which the defendant has been conyicted is a very henious ene; one
which is of too common. occurrence
in this community., It is the duty of
the Court, under the law, after conviction upon a fdir and impartig /
trial;to affix such a penalty as will
be adequate punishment for the crime
which has been commit In this
case my jadgment “i
