Shanghel, 26th September. Before J. A. Leonanp, Esq., U.S. v. Fran, James A. Frame was indicted for the murder of George Lemon on Ist May last.
Mr. A. P. Stokes prosecuted on behalf of the Government of the United States whilst Mr. H. P. Wilkinson represented the accused.
Frame occupied a seat in court, some little time prior to the opening of the pro-coedings. He wore " tweed suit of somewhat striking pattern, and seemed perfectly cool and collected, and none the worse for his confinement in goal. When the Court as was assembled he was given a seat on a witness-scand, and subsequently during the drawing of the assessors' list he sat next his counsel, to whom he occasionally spoke.
His Honour having taken his seat addressing the prisoner said:—Is your name James A. Frame?
