"The testimony as to alleged declar ations made by Porter, one of the jur ors, long before the trial, is not very satisfactory in character and was denied by Porter. He testifies however, tbat when brought in as a talesman and on his voir diro examination he was in quired of as to whether he had ever ex pressed or formed an opinion as to the defendant's gnilt. to which he respond ed that he had; that when further in quired of us to wbethei this would pre vent. him from finding a verdict accord ing to the evidence, he replied that it would not. With this be was accepted by the commonwealth and defendant. ' He denies, however, that he express ed himself as testified to by the witness for the defendant who was heard on the mention for new trial. "There was no evidence whatever, of any bad behavior on his part during the trial or consideration of the case, neither is there anything in the verdict itself to indicate that any element of malice or prejudice entered into it. "On the argument of the motion for the new trial it was urged that the court in instructing the jury, had stat ed the law of self defense too strongly against the defendant. "As the instruction on this point, however, consisted principally iu read ing to the jury the rule ot law as stated by the Supreme Court, this complaint is against the law itself "On the case as a whole we do not think that the ends of justice require a re-trial. The motion for a new trial is therefore refused this 26th day of Feb ruary, 1000." PROPERTY TRANSFERS. Milo V S Gold to C F France lot on West St for 12800!
