George Gibson of Emanuel l Church and his secretary, JRobert I Jn. Lynch, occupied seats near the 1 jury box and paid close attention to the speaker. Durrant sat, stolid ’ and indifferent, in his usual place beside his attorneys, surrounded I by his father, mother and a num ber of friends. Durrant betrayed no emotion or feeling, even when accused of murders that were com pared with the cr.mes of Jack the Ripper in the Whitechapel distric of London. His mother, howev er, looked more thoughtful and depressed than she has at other time since the trial .began. when Mr. Piextro closed !his argument, at 3:30 o’clock.
