Called the ushers, stilling the hum of conversation in the sparsely attended Criminal Court, during the absence of the jury to consider their verdict in a case of attempted murder. As the jury filed back into the Court, the prisoner-a man of about middle height, but wiry and very muscular in build, with a taciturn, sullen look in his face - watched them with an expression more suggestive of curiosity than anxiety. It seemed as if he was, or wished to appear, indifferent about the verdict. The judge took his seat on the bench, and after the usual formal questions, the foreman announced the verdict.
