|a Indictment for an assault upon a white woman with an intent to commit rape. Evidence from Harry, a fellow servant, who first suggested that another person had been responsible, but then gave the solicitor for the State grounds to suspect that he was an accomplice in the assault with Oscar. The prisoner was found guilty in the lower court. Counsel for the prisoner alleged that some testimony should have been ruled inadmissible and that improper instructions had been given to the jury. The Supreme Court ruled that although the prisoner and the witness had recently had a fight, it was valid evidence that the two had been seen together the day after the alleged assault conversing in friendly terms. On the second point the Supreme Court did agree that Judge Heath's instructions to the jury on the meaning of the words rational doubt might have misled the jury. On this basis a re-trial was ordered.
