He also instructed the bailiff not 1o give them anything to eat until they had found verdict of gwlty or ot guilty. In ten minutes thereafter tho jury rewrued a verdict finding the prisoner guilty as charged, Stedry’s at torneys protested avatust this wmethiod of forcing the jury to come to a verdict and took exception. Judge Moore said while the lu was little used, it was a practice in old Eny lish law that hal nover been repealed. e aid when the juries became obstinate 1 a case where the course was clear, e would adopt any measure allowed by law to make them agree upon u verdict.
