    The Watt Murder Case!
    Acquittal of Prisoner!
    This was an indictment against George Watt, Jr, for the murder of his grandmother, Jane Campbell, an old woman living, at the time of her death, with George Watt, Sen, the father of the prisoner.The circumstances tending to establish the guilt of the prisoner being of a purely circumstantial nature, every effort was made on the part of the Crown, both by D Fraser, Esq, the County Crown Attorney, at the preliminary examination, and by J Deacon, Jr, Esq, the Crown Counsel, on the trial, to supply all the links necessary in the chain of evidence to afford a fair presumption of the guilt of the accused. Plans showing the section of the country in which the alleged murder took place, and of the spot in which the body was found, were prepared from actual survey and produced on the trial. The trial, from the large number of witnesses examined, occupied more than two days, but the ingenuity and ability displayed in the examinations of the witnesses by the Crown Counsel as well as in the searching cross examinations of W M Shaw, Esq, Counsel for the prisoner, rendered it anything but tedious or uninteresting, while the addresses of both Counsel were masterly in the comprehensive manner of dealing with the long train of circumstances given in evidence on each side. Seldom has a trial of this nature presented greater difficulties and seldom have such difficulties been handled with equal skill and ingenuity. The jury, after a very able and impartial charge from the learned Judge, retired to consider their verdict, and after some hours brought in the verdict of "Not Guilty."

    The following is as brief a statement as can be given of the evidence.
    George Watt, Sen, sworn - Am father of prisoner; I examined the hand of deceased on the Monday morning before her death and she had no ring on then.
