this mistake: he levelled his pistol, and covered Mr. O’Grady for a few seconds. Mr. O’Grady, perceiving his antagonist prepared, raised his pistol; but, before he had levelled it. Captain Markham, whose eye was upon him, gave the signal. Captain Smith fired, and Mr. O’Grady fell. He lived till about three o’clock on the following day, when he expired. Evidence was adduced in corroboration of the above statement. The jury returned a verdict, finding both prisoners guilty of manslaughter; and they were sentenced to be imprisoned in the gaol of Kilmainham for the space of twelve months. The announcement of the sentence was received with cheers from some parts of the court. Captain Smith, who, during the latter part of the trial, had evinced considerable emotion, as soon as the sentence was pronounced, clapped his hands to his forehead, and in an agony exclaimed, “Oh God! my God! take my life! Is it come to this?” Then, throwing himself into Captain Markham’s arms, he cried, “Oh Markham! my dear Frederick, have I brought you to this? Oh! I wish to God they would take my life! Shame and disgrace, and every thing else, have come upon me!” The unfortunate gentleman then covered his face with his handkerchief, and burst into tears. Judge Vandeleur added, that, in passing the sentence, he ought, perhaps, to have said, that the conduct of the prisoners, when in the field, was such as to leave no stain upon their character.
