VERDICT OF THE COUOXBR’S JURY.
after sitting thr. e hours upon the
case, the jury returned the follbi
verdiot:
. "Georgia, Floyd County, January 91
1890.—We, the coroner’s jury empanel
ed and sworn to investigate the killing
of Mr. D. F. Allgood, find, upon the ev
idence [submitted, that he came to his
death from a gunshot wound at the
hands of Dr. J. B. S. Holmes on the
90th day of January, 1890, at about 8
o’clock p. m., in the city of Rome; and
we further fiud that all the circum
stances of the killing show that it was
justifiably done in the fear of losing his
own life
The warrant still holds against Dr.
Holmes. He remainds in his room un
der charge of Sheriff Jenkins. The trial
for commitment before Judge Maddox
will be held this afternoon, and it
generally agreed that the verdict can
