And soon the telegraph wires flashed it all over the kingdom. The coroner hastened to the castle, inspected the corpse, and ordered that everything should remain untouched. He then empanelled a jury for the inquest, whose first session was held in the chamber of death, from which the suffering daughter of the deceased banker had been tenderly removed.

Good God, gentlemen, in a court of justice, where jurors are empanelled to decide upon the future prospects and the life of this young man, would your wife or mine refuse to answer such a question? Is it a shame for us to acknowledge that the holy bonds of matrimony have united us with a being the mother of our offspring?

In civil causes, juries were seldom empanelled, because they were attended by very considerable expense and delay. The chief object, in going to law, moreover, was, in most cases, to have a decision of the matter in dispute; and juries were as prone to "hang" then as now.

Or rather, why insult justice, in demanding of me why sentence of death should not be pronounced against me? I know, my lords, that form prescribes that you should ask the question. The form also presents the right of answering. This, no doubt, may be dispensed with, and so might the whole ceremony of the trial, since sentence was already pronounced at the Castle before the jury were empanelled.

"I have to say that I have been found guilty by a packed jury by the jury of a partizan sheriff by a jury not empanelled even according to the law of England. I have been found guilty by a packed jury obtained by a juggle a jury not empanelled by a sheriff but by a juggler." This was touching the high sheriff on a tender place, and he immediately called out for the protection of the court.

But you are right outside it, and you must know. In a day or two or perhaps a week take whatever steps you think fit. I leave it in your hands." She concluded her charge. "The facts as they touch Meg are all before you," she added; and Tibby sighed and felt it rather hard that, because of his open mind, he should be empanelled to serve as a juror.

In all other States, save the four women's-suffrage States, the common law prevails, and they may not hold political office. The first entirely female jury was empanelled in Colorado this year . In some States, however, statutes have been passed opening certain offices, such as notaries public, and, of course, the school commission.

"A jury of matrons was, as it were, empanelled, and to prevent the child 'dying hard' all the doors in the house, all the drawers, all the boxes, all the cupboards were thrown wide open, the keys taken out, and the body of the child placed under a beam, whereby a sure, certain, and easy passage into eternity could be secured."
