to show menial derangement It devolve
upon thn state to provo his sanity at tha
time of'thp commission ftho actchargrd
beyond a reasonable douht.
Condition of Ktiifit,
Judging mV the rvldencc, of tho acts,
conduct and manner of tho accused, thwe
may be some doubt whether hl act was
prompted by diseased mind or a desire
for revengo uh against the warden ana
deputy for acta of opnrwfdon and cruelty,
of whloh he doomed tfiem guilty. If the
former, ha should riot bo held to the 1ft
fllctlon of tho extreme penalty."
After rovlowtrig the facts of the mutder
and tho evidence brought out at tha trial,
the high bench discusses tho Insanity de
fense of Prince and the testimony of
some of the convicts and guards that he
had moody spells. His own statement on
the witness stand that. he brooded over
what he considered his wrongs until he
thought ho was dolns right to kill oltnor
Delahiinty or Davis J given rome weight.
