The Daily Dispatch: March 21, 1862., [Electronic resource], A deficit wanted. (search)
d Lieut. Colonel, as to advance him a month's pay as such. Mr. Smith was induced to do so because prisoner had been introduced to him by a young Baltimorean, named Tormey, as "Colonel Miller," and no case of false representation on the part of anybody claiming to be an officer had before occurred to induce a suspicion of the trick. Prisoner was defended by N. A. Sturdivant and A. Judson Crane, Esqs., and prosecuted with his usual ability by Littleton Tazewell, Esq, Attorney for the Commonwealth. After the evidence and arguments of counsel were heard, the case was given to the jury, who returned a verdict of guilty, and ascertained the term of his confinement in the Penitentiary at three years. The prisoner moved the Court to act aside the verdict, as contrary to the law and the evidence, and grant a new trial; which was refused. Time was allowed until to-day to file a bill of exceptions. The trial of James P. Neagle, for shooting a child, will commence this morning.
