Check Treatment
Metcalf, J.

The only question in this case is, whether the instructions given to the jury, concerning their rights and duty in deciding upon the law and the facts, were such as ought to have been given. We doubt whether those instructions were, in all respects, accurate. If they were not, it is, in our judgment, because they were more favorable to the defendant than they ought to have been, and therefore she has no legal cause for objecting to them. Exceptions overruled.
