It is learned that the court has passed | judgment in the case of our townsman Mr. Milton Jacobs who, it will be remem- bered, had the misfortune some months ago while chauffeuring a motor truck to Frederiksted to collide with a horse and cart, the animal and one of the occupants of the cart being killed on the spot, The “court has pot sustained the charge of man-slaughter, and the sentence is un- derstood to impose a fine of $20.00, in which connection we take pleasure in congratulating Mr. Jacobs upon his hav- ing been dealt with in a manner merited by hLis moral standing in the case as viewed by the whole community whose full sympathy he has had, and whose sentiments were expressed in this pa- per shortly after the unhappy accident, through the medium of our contributor Mr. R. H. Amphlett Leader, postmaster of Frederiksted. We feel sure his ex-. perience has taught Mr. Jacobs, :nd probably many others, a severe lesson which will not be unlearned, and which should prove of profitable account to all in the future.
