When the Stranger with a Club was brought to trial, the complainant said to the Judge: He watched his slightest movement, however, with eager eyes; and, as he traced the fine outline of his admirably proportioned and active frame, he endeavored to persuade himself, that, if the powers of man, seconded by such noble resolution, could bear one harmless through so severe a trial, the youthful captive before him might hope for success in the hazardous race he was about to run. At the second trial, the aim was better, and the ball descended inside the stockade, scattering a cloud of sand but doing no further damage. |
