All through the night, at intervals of half an hour, a ballot had been taken and no definite conclusion reached. The fore- noon wore away, and on the forty-second ballot the vote stood as it had stood since the exit from the court room, — eleven — one.
When the foreman announced the result the "one" man addressed the "eleven" in angry tones: "Consarn you! 'You are the stubbomest men I ever saw." *5* J* »5* A Chicago lawyer tells of a sheriff in southern Illinois, who took the jury to a hotel an...d fed them liberally on cabbage, buttermilk and other sleep-pro- ducing viands. The result was that every juror went to sleep that afternoon.
"Mr. Sheriff," the judge said, after the jury had been awakened, "I will not submit to such outrages 244 LEGAL LAUGHS as this. Next time you summon a jury, I want you to select men, not for their girth, but with a single eye to justice." The sheriff obeyed. Every man on the next panel was one-eyed.
»>• Jw J* The clerk of the court addressed the jury : "Well, gentlemen of the jury, have you agreed upon a verdict?" "We have," replied the foreman.
