This haa been done more with regard to a right decision of the case than from any sympathy with Tomeroy himseclf, or any sentlnental ar morbld palliation of Lfs crime. There s no doubt that the declsion Is the honest conviction of thoso upon whom the great reeponsibllity of this trylng dnty lse developed.
