Mr. Byrne then quoted the, foi- lowing from a long manuscript on

The use of guns is a great gam

The murderer is different. Et gives no warning but kills at sight.
"It is hard to believe, big it h true, that gunmen can shoot people and yet love little children, have laying and faithful wives, and be an adorable father.
"The gunman is the same as the policeman; he is out to keep his wife and children, but on the othui side of the law.
"If he kills ho has sleepless nights and a tormented mind. The gunman's life is not an "easy one, Every time he goes out he bids good- bye to his family, for he may üever return."
Charles admitted that he wrote it, but it was fiction.
Mr. Pyye-In spite of this you still ask the jury to believe that you bought the pistol to scare crows?
Charles I do not ask anybody to believe me I have done wrong and I am ready to pay for it.
Short, giving evidence, said that he never intended to be a party to
any shooting.
Mr. Justice Humphreys, sumining up, quoted from the manuscript found at Charles's address, saying that it would have to be considered in view of the defence that he shot the constable by mischance.
