FREED BY JURY
N BRIEF III
As was generally predicted in
Fairbanks prior to the conclusion of
the case, the jury before whom An
na McCarthy was tried on the
charge of shooting ‘her husband re
turned a verdict of not guilty on
Saturday night, within a remarkably
short time after the case had been
turned over to them for a decision.
The case went to the jury at seven
minutes after ten, and within 38
minutes the foreman reported to
Judge Bunnell that a verdict had
been reached.
There was a big crowd on hand
to hear the verdict, nearly all those
who attended the night session of
the court having remained around
the courthouse in anticipation of a
quick return of the jury. The ver
dict was hailed with delight by the
Brooks delegation and Fairbanksans,
while less demonstrative, appeared
well satisfied with the outcome.
Attorney T. A. Marquam consum
ed more than three hours in his
closing appeal to the jury, and the
report is that he made a powerful
address, reviewing the case from
start to finish. United States At
torney Roth closed for the prosecu
tion, and used up about an hour
roasting Marquam. Very little of
his talk, it is stated, referred to the
case itself.
The trial of the McCarthy case
concludes the hearing of criminal
matters for the present, the next
case of that sort -being the Vachon
fur case, which is set for November.
