THE PETRI MURDER CASE.

Decision of the Supreme Court Granting a New Trial.

DISSENTING OPINION OF JUSTICB GREGORY.

From the Indianapolis Journal, 9th.] In the Supreme Court yesterday the fol lowing opinions were filed in tbe case Morgan, the Torre Haute murderer, on an appeal from the Vigo Criminal Court, in which tbe defendant bad been sentenced to be banged:

Morgan

VS.

Thk

State.

Ray, Judge

—The appellant was indicted in tbe Vigo Criminal Circuit Court, on tbe 15th day of July, 1869, for the murder of John Petri, on tbe 11th of the same montb.— He was arraigned and plead not guilty upon the day the indictment was found and entered upon bis trial on tbe 19thday of the month.

A motion was made for a change of venue, supported by tbe affidavits of the appellant and two other persons.

The affidavits alleged lliat a bittor feeling and intense excitement existed over the entire county created by the circnmstances attending the death of Petri, which would prevent tbe appellant from receiving a fair and impartial trial within tbe jurisdiction of that Court. That certain publications had been made in all the jurisdiction of that Court. That certain publications had been made in all tbe newspapers of that locality calculated to causo and which had resulted*-in producing, a conviction in the public mind of tbe guilt of the accused and rendering impossible to secure disinterested and unbiased triors. Counter affidavits were also prosentod by the Stato, embracing ono made by the Sheriff of tho county, and also the sworn statements of five other citizens that tho excitement and illfeeling manifested toward the prisonor was confined to the city of Terre Haute, and that a jury froe from all improper influences could bo socured from other portions of tbo county. Tho appellant thereupon moved the Court for leave to file other and additional affidavits in support of his application for a change of. venue. This tbe Court refused. Inasmuch as no additional affidavits were offered, no question arises upon the ruling. The judgment of the Court is not to be invoked in moro wantonnoss. Upon tho presentation of an affidavit for tho pur posa of flting it in fie case, a ruling of ibe Court may bo required, which roav be the subject of review hero. Upon an examination of an affidavit thus presented, with all the circumstances attending the motion, brought beforo us by a bill of exceptions, wo bavo a basis upon which to question or approvo tho judgment of the Court bolow.

Tho motion for a changd of venue was overruled. Wo are asked to roview this action of the Court. In tho case of An derson v. Tho State, 28 Ind., 22, tho same point was prosonted, and after a careful consideration of the subject, we affirmed tbe ruling of tho Circuit Court. The present application for a chango of venuo is not moro strongly supported. Tho affidavits horo prosonted, discloso a feel ing of strong excitoment in tbo city near which the crimo was committed. This was not extraordinary. A tornblo of fence had been perpetrated. The residenco of a reputable citizen had boon felonious ly entered on Sunday noon, during tho abionce of the family, and upon tho eud den return of the proprietor, he is killed in his own bed room by the felon. Tho arreBt follows tbe same ovoning Horror at tbo crimo, indignation against the per. petrator, and a desire for swift and sure punishment, convulse tho community Tbe Grand Jury aro at onco summoned, an indictment iB found, and on tho fourth day from tho tragedy tho accused pleads for his lifo in the midst of a community thus wrought upon—pleads whon his counsel oven net undor appointment of the Court. Under Buch circumstances the position of the Judge before whom Ihesu9p6cted criminal stands, involves grave responsibilities. Under such circumstances it sometimes happens that public clamor demands of tho Court, not a just administration of the law, but its aid in securing through legal forms some victim to popular indignation. It were better that tbe mob should execute its Will—terrible as tbe alternative may be —than that a Judge should yield one right secured to the prisoner by the law. The Court, when tho excitement is passed, will retain the public confidence in its due and proper administration of tbe law, a loss of wnich would be irreparable. The excess of popular violence, although it can not correct the injustice it may have worked, will bring an assured repentance.

We do not intend by these remarks to imply that we are satisfied in this case, that there has boon an abuse of the discretion confided to the Court, but that it is apparent that tho surroundings were not such as most certainly to secure what the applicant was elearly entitled to, a fair trial before men who bad not pre judged his case. We aro not content by oursilence seemingly to approve the haste, which places the accused within the woek his alleged victim expired, in the midst of a community excited by the outrage, on trial for his life. A jury, however, was empanelled from other portions

of the county, where it was alleged no flnmmal excitement existed, afcd as the statute places the matter of a change of the locality of the trial, within the d"«cretion of the Judge before whom the application is made, we do not feel tbat the present case authorizes us to reverse tbe ruling, if indeed we ought to doso under any circumstances.

On tbe examination of personb called as jurors, as to their competency, five of the panel answr *cd that they had formed an opinion as to tbe guilt or innocence of the appellant, from rumor ahd- newspaper statements on that subject. Upon further examination, each of said per. sons answered that it ould require neither more nor leas ovldc iceto satisfy them of tho existence or nonexistence of the material a involved' in the ct3e, by reason of such a'.rcidy formed opinion. The Cot -t, therec ion, overruled the challenge by app* lant "for cause."

Tliis callin: was in full r» jord with the decision o. this Court in ne case of FahnBtock v. Tho State, (23 Ind., 231). It is in vain, in tbe presence of a tolegraph that throbs with every beat of the world's life, and a daily pre? to register each pulsation, for courts longer to expect a un iondf ignorance of a matter made notori. ous by publication, will seldom be found where sufficient discrimination exists to detect falsehood from truth. Tho rapid! ty with which information is conveyed and the hasto to place it before the public, involve so much inaccuracy in the statement, that experience soon instructs tho reader, and the impression formed fades at once before tho living witness.— An impression so light is practically harmless, and a theory which rejects such jurors can not bo abandoned in practice.

On tbe trial, tbe statements made by Petri, on Sunday afternoon, about au hour after the shoo' ng had occurred, in regard to the circumstances attending the injury, woro offori 1 a1*his dying declarations, and upon certain evidence as to his condition at tho time the statements were made, being adduci j, the Court, over the objection of the appellant, permitted them to go to tho jury. It is assigned as error, that the evidence as to tho condi tion of Petri did not show him to have been in extre. its at tbe date his

declara

tions were mado. It is a relief, when called upon to test a given state of facts, by a rule of law, to find that rule well defiaed, marked and clear founded upon a plain reason and sustained by uniform authority.

Such is tbe rule under which certain statements made by ono speaking, notun der the obligation of an oath, but in the very presence of death, are received evidence. No well considertl case has attempted to extend or limit the establish edrule, and where error has been committed, it has occurred in its application to facts. The principio, as st» 1 by Lord Chief Baron Eyre, on wbicb ti.is species of evidence is admitted, is tfc"i they are declarations made in extreme/, when the party is at the point of death, and when every hope of this world is gone, when every motive to falsehood is silenced and the mind is induced by the most powerful considerations to speak the truth. A situation so solemn and so awful is considered by tbe law as creating an obligation equal to that which is imposed by a poeitive oath in a court of justice. Woodcock's case, 1 Leach, 502.

In the last edition of Greenleaf on Evidence, Judge Redfield bad added this note to the text. "This evidence is n«» received upon any other ground than that of necessity, ia order to prevent- murder going unpunished. What is said in the books about the situation of tbe declarant, be being virtually under the niost solemn sanction to speak the truth, is far from presenting the true ground of the admission, for if that were all that is re quisite to render the declarations evidence, the apprehension of death would have tho samo effect, since it would place the declarant under the same restraint as if the apprehension were founded in fact. But both must concur, both the fact aud tbe apprehension of being in extremis.— This presumption, and the probability of tbe crimo going unpunished, is unquestionably the cbiof ground of bis exception in the Law of Evidence." Vol. 1, p. 182. And accordingly they are received "only when the death of the deceased is the subject of tbo charge, and tb6 circumstances of tbo death tho subject of tbe declarations." Rex v. Mead, 2 Barn. & Crcs. 605 2 Phillips on Evidence, vol. 1, 287 1 Gree iloaf on Evidence, 181.

As this class of ovidence forms an exception totbgeneral rule as thoro can be no cross-t lamination of the declarant as tbe accuscd can not often moet his accusor face to face, and there must of necessity ex 't great danger of abuse, it must cloarl appef that the statements offered in evidenc have been mado under a full realization that the solomn hour of death has come.

In tho cue of Smith v. tho Sute, 9 Hum, 9, it is said: "Test: lony of this characlor Is only admitted 'rom necessity, and on abi^o it is guarded against by the law with most minu',0 particular ity. Thon. is no ono principio bottor os tablished than that such declarations shall not be rociived, unless the proof clear ly.ih( us that the decef-sed was in extremis,—(perilapf the words in articulo mortis, which aro r»od by some of the au thorities to express the condition, are more accurate)—and that he or she at the time of making them was fully conscious of that fact, not as a thing of surmise and conjecluro or apprehension, but as a fixed and inevitable fact" Ono emu nont writer calls it tho apprbension of "impending death"—2 Ev. I'oth., 293. In tho notes to Phillips on Ev. it is said "In the meantime bo is not only certain of ultimate death, but hois strongly persuaded that death is rapidly approaching. It is so near that all motives to falsehood are superseded by the strongest inducements to strict voracity"—290. "Tho Judge should be satisfled that tho declaration was made under an impression of almost immediate dissolution."—lb. vol. 2, noto 453.

In Rex. v. Callaghan, McNally's evidence, 385, Bosanquet judge said: "To rondor a declaration of this kind adrais si bio, tbe decease most havo had the impression on his mind of an almost immediate dissolution."

It is not required that the deceased should havo declared in terms that he oxptc'od to firo at once, if bis condition bo such that of necessity such an impression must exist on bis mind.

I Woodcock's case ante, it was deemed sufficient to show that tbe deceased had boon mortally, wounded and was in a condition which rendored almost immediato doalb inevitable and that she was thought by every person about her to bo dying. Do matter ho* strong the expression of certainty of daath may be, if there be any evidence of hope,, in tbe language or actions of tbe declarant, his statement will be rejected.

The bill of exceptions state the follow ing as the evidence upon which the declarations of Petri were admitted. Charles May stat«d: "I asked John what was the matter?" John pulled up his shirt and said: "lam in a bad fix and John said be could not recover. This was ab*.ut one or two o'clock on Sunday, about an hour after the shooting. That after this conversation took place be (May) went for a doctor for Petri."

Moritz Hasenobr states that "he saw Petri about an hour after he was shot, ami before a docior_got there and he (Petri) told me he felt bad, and thought he would not get well." Tbe wounds were two in number, each from a small pistol ball one in the left jaw, not dangerous, and the other lodged in the cavity of tbe abdomen. It has, from experience during the late war, become a matter of popular knowledge, that wounds in suoh parts of tbe body, are not of necessity, fatal, and where death does not at once result, it can only be foretold by

the careful examination of, a person of •kill in snch matters. It is very clear dot

change comes over the face of the sufferer.that The light fades from tbe eye,

and tbe flush from the cheek, as hope for timo deserts the patient. Such expressions of mere impatience and roUlossness are not a sufficient foundation for a court to rest a safe conclusion upon as to the actual condition of tho speaker's mind Far from clearly establishing the fact, that all bope has fled and that immediate dissolution is oxpected, tboy can hardly be said to creato a presumption that such is the Actual condition of the mind,

It seems impossible to deny that the Court committed error in allowing tbe statements of Petri to go to tho jury, as dying declarations.

This error having occurred, did it harm tbe appellant? The presumption isjthat it did, and unless it clearly appeared that it did not, wa must reverse the case. .Indeed the only ground upon which tliis error can be treated as harmless, is th.Usuch testimony supplied the defec tive proof and testified the action already taken by the Court.

Ia the course of his examination chief, Cbarles May stated that he was brother-in-law of tbe deceased that wben he saw him on Sunday afternoon be ask ed him: "What's the matter." Petri answered: "Charley, I am in a bad fix go for a doctpr." "I went for a doctor got a doctor and went home. Went and saw him again. He told me that believed he would die. This was Sunday afternoon. John told me an hour befool tbat he would die."

Moritz Hosmour testified that Petr told him "he bad given up all hopes. This was_ about 2 o'clock Sunday after

noon.

Dr. Armstrong testified that be saw Petri about 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon He called again at 5 o'clock and at 1 o'clock at night, and the next morning at five, and the last visit was made at I o'clock on Monday afternoon. He states: "I do not remember he said he was in fear of dying or not. The character of the wound led me to believe it would prove fatal. was not satisfied it would •prove so at my first sight. It was hard to determine how long it may be before wound may terminate fatilly. Slough ing produces secondary hemorrhage."

In this evidence we have tbe statement of Petri that he "had given up all bope, and yet with this comes hij call for physician, and though not much is to be rested upon this fact, still it may not be unreasonable to infer that some hope still existed of aid. Then, too, the physician who examinod bim at 3 o'clock can not recall that Petri even expressed a fear of dying, nor was the doctor himself enabled to determino the condition of the patient. And can it be supposed that under such circumstances tbe physician gave his patient no encouragement—animated him with no bope while bis friends were about him This seems to fall far short of tbe proof required

In Rex v. Crockett, 4 Carr and Payhe, 544, the surgeon testified "1 had told tho deceased sho would not rocover.^tnd she was perfectly aware of her danger, told her I understood sho had taken something. She said she had, and that damned man had poisoned her. 1 asked what man She said Crockett She said she hoped I would do what I could for her, for «he sake of her family, I told hor there wis no chance of hor recovery Bosanquet, JudgO, said: This shows degree of hope in her mind. To render a declaration of this kind admissible, she must have had the impression on her mind of an almost immediate disiolu tion.'

Giving full weight to the aftor fact, that Petri did dio about six o'clock on Monday ovoning, would it bo reasonable to assert from the evidence that it clearly oppears that he approhonded even, much less was absolutely assured of immediate death In Rex vs Van Butchell, 3, Carr & Payne, 629, the deceased declared to his surgeon that he bad an injury in bis bowels (having been operated on by quack) that ho would never recover.— Tho surgeon endeavored to encourage him, really thinking him not in danger of dying, but he persisted in saying,that he felt satisfied ho should nevor recover. Hullock, B., rejected the proposed decla ration as evidence. In tho case of The King, vs. Spilsburg,,?, C. & P., .187, it was proposed to give in evidence the dying declaration of a deceased person, and it was provod that about the lime of making the declaration, the deceased was askoc if ho thought ho should recover, aDd how he was to wbicb he answered that he thought he should not recover, as he was so very ill. Ho had been previously inr sensible, but romained sensible for an hour and died the nert day. Tho evi denco was rejected by Coleridge, J. on the ground that ho did not feel fully con vincod that the deceased had no hope of recovoring.

In Reginavs. Mayson, 9 Carr. Pay no, 418, in a case of murder, it appeared tbat two days before the death of the decoased, the surgeon told her lhatshe was in a very precarious state and that on the day before her deith when she bad become much worse, she said to the surgeon that sho found herself growing worse, and that she had been in hopes sho would have got better, but as she waa getting worse sho thought it her duty to mention what had taken place. Immediately after this she made a statement. Kolfe B. said "I think it does not sufficiently appear that tbe deceased was without hope of recovery. I think I ought not Jto receive the evidence."

In tbe case of Rex vs. Bonner, 6 Carr & Paine, 386, cited in the dissenting opinion, it will be observed that Patterson J. states of the person who made the declaration tbat "it is quite clear that he did not expect to survive the accident, and it is evident that he thought on tbe Wednesday that he might die on tbat day."—

As the statement was made on Wednesday uader expectation or death that day,wben

the case seems to come within the rule. But the casee we have cited establish tbe rule aad exhibit the extreme caution observed by courts of the highest reputation in restricting evidence within its limits.

The reason of this strictness is evident. The irritable condition of the wounded sufferer tbe natural inclination to justify one's own coaduct the disposition condemn another as the cause of one'sto suffer-

ing the presence of sympathizing friends the strong sense of wrong and outrage the feelings of anger and revenge—all these are not calculated to induce

party. To overcome these there Is not[ oven the saoetfly of an oath nothing, deed, but Uncertain looking for of ditatl —inevitabliand Immediate. This a fol can bo looked to aa securing truth, wh there is no oath, ho cross-examination, no confronting of witnesses.

The only safe rule for the admission of such declarations is that the declarant must be fully persuaded that death is rapidly apptoiching. That it so near that all motives to falsehood are superseded by the ptrongast motives to strict .veracity* and that the prooi render Chis condition of the mind clear to the Judgo before whom it is offered. And as the chief value of the law rests in its faithful administration, the rule can not bend to cases of seeming hardships. In the pres ent instance the State has the declarations of the deceased, made a few hours before his death, when the physician states he was in a dying condition, in addition to the excluded testimony.

The statements made on Saturday after noon should have been rejected. The appellant presents a bill of excep tions containing the instructions given by the Court to the jury. The only statement in regard to the punishment to be inflicted, in the event of a conviction for murder in the first degree are contained in the following instructions: "Murder in the first degree is defined as follows Sec. 2. If any person of sound mind shall purposely, and with premedi-. tated malice, or in the perpeteation or attempt to perpetrate any rape, arson, robbery, or causing tho same to be done, kill any human being, such person shall be declared guilty of murder in tbe first degree, and uE&n conviction thereof shall suffer death the only portion of the section applicable to the case now under con sidoratioDMs embraced in the following words to-wit: If any person of sound mind shall purposely and with, premeditated'malice kill any human being, such person shall be deemed guilty of murder in the first degree and upon conviction shall suffer death I"

The appellant insists tbat the jury should have been informed that the statute provided that "any person convicted of treason or murder in the first degree may, instead of being sentenced to death, in the discretion of the jury, be imprisoned in the State prison during life." 2 G. & page .43, section 4.

The records, however, shows that the exceptions were taken by presenting tbe bill of exceptions pending tbe motion for anew trial, and as there is a question made whether this can be regarded as at the proper time, within the provisions of the statute on tbe subject in criminal cases, we do not discuss the question, as the case must be revised for tbe error in admitting tbe statement of Petri made on Sunday afternoon.

Judgment reversed and cause remand ed for anew trial. Gregory, J. files a dissenting opinion.

DISSKNTINQ OPINION.

Gregory, J. I am very clearHIfat the judgment in this case ought to be affirmed.

The facts, in my opinion, make a case of courier in the first degree, and are of a character to justify tbe infliction of tbe highest penalty of the law.

The defendant entered the house of the deceased, and committed a felony was detected after perpetrating the crime, and to enable bim to make his escape, he shot tbe deceased with a revolver, with which he was armed, indicting a mortal wound, of which the deceased died in about twenty-nine hours.

I differ with the majority on tbe application of rule as to the dying declaration.. The deceased was shot through the body and also in the jaw in a struggle with the prisoner he had bled freely in his wounds he had pursued theappellant for about a quarter of a mile bad returned to his house, was in bed be sent for a doctor he said be was in a bad fix that be thought he shouid die that be had given up all hope.

The medical witnesses concurred in saying that tho wounds were mortal it is true, that the attendant physician was not clear in his mind at his first visit, tbat tbe wounds were mortal, but he be came satisfied tho same day that they were so. It is very clear to my mind, that tho deceased, at the time he made the declarations introduced in evidence, was laboring under apprehension of almost immediate death.

In Rex v. Bonner, 6 Carrington & Payne, 386, (25 F. C. L. 487) tho deceasod had mot with an accident, which happened about two o'clock on the morning of Sunday, the 11*11 of August, 1833. Tho surgeon Btatcd tbat he attended the deceased on Sunday, the 11th, wben be found bim with six ribs broken,and other injuries that he inform ed tho deceased that he could not expect to recover. Beavan (the deceased) replied that he was aware tbat he must go out of the world unless he was relieved by medicine. Ho was better on Monday, but passed a very bad nigbt on Tuesday, and that on Wednesday he was very ill, and said that be'was satisfied that be must go out of tbo world. A clergyman also stated that the deceased told bim on Wednecday tbatbedid not expect to live. A brother and son.in-law of the docoased also stated they were sent for by tbe de ceased, and saw him on Wednesday when be expressed his great anxiety to settle his worldly affairs, as he had not long to live. He died on the following Saturday It was contended for tho prisonor that the fact the deceasod did on tbe Sunday oxpress himself in terms which clearly showed that he hoped to recover, and tbe fact that be did live until tbe Saturday, made the dying declarations not receivable in ovldence.

Patterson, J. (who tried the case) said: I think that I am bound to admit the declarations of tbodoceasod. It is quite cloar that be did not expocl to survive theaccidont: and it is evident tbat be thought on the Wednesday that ho might die on that day. It is not necessary to prove expressions of apprehension of immediate danger and tbe circumstance tbat ho lived until Saturday did not alter tho state of things on the Wed' nesday."

In tho case under consideration, the nature of the wotindp, tbe declarations of tho deceased, the short time he lived, were all matters to he considered dotormining tbe question to whether he was laboring under tbe appronsion of "al most immediate death. Under tbo nil ings in all tbe cases on this subject, if it had been proven to tho satisfaction of tho judge trying the' caso that the deceased was, at the time be made tbo declarations in question, laboring undor tbo apprehension that he would die within -tbo then next twonty-eigbt hours, then they would undoubtedly have been proper testimony to go to the jury.

Tbe nature of the injury, tbe short time tbe deceasod lived, his expressions that bo "did not expect to recover," "that he had given up all hope," satisfy me that tbe Court below committed no error in admitting the evidence. Indeed, I do not see under tbe rulings, how the Court could have done otherwise.

Tbe rule is a reasonable one, and is as old as tbe common law it only applies to cases of homicide. Tbe felon by whose unlawful act the tongue of hiE victim has been silenced in death has no good tight to complain. There is no rebson why the rule should be so restricted in its application as to make it of little or no practical use.

I am of opinion that tbe instructions of the Court to tbe jury are not properly in tbe record. Of course when I say that tbe judgment ought to be affirmed it is in view of the legal presumption tbat the Court properly directed the jury as to the law of
