This case was still pending when our paper went to press last week, on Thursday.  At three o’clock that day the pleading closed and the Judge read a lengthy and elaborate charge to the jury, who then retired to their room, where they remained until Friday morning before concluding a verdict.  At half-past 8 o’clock Court opened and the jury returned a verdict of “manslaughter.”  Judge Wood then sentenced the prisoner, Elijah Barton, to hard labor in the Ohio Penitentiary for the term of ten years, being the fullest extent of the law in punishment for manslaughter.  The general opinion of outsiders was that the verdict would be for murder in the second degree.  Sheriff Barnett on Friday took Barton to Columbus, where he has now one week in of the ten long years.
