Fred Henry, of Charge of the Court to tho Grand Jury at September Sessions 1022 Your names have been drawn from the jury wheel, you have been regularly summoned and sworn as Grand Jurors for the September Sessions of this Court, in keeping with the laws of Pennsylvania. The qualifications of Grand Jurors as required by the law of our state are that they must bo "sober, intelligent and judicious persons." You are now entering upon the high and exalted duties you are called upon to discharge. It is important that you realize and appreciate the responsibility resting upon you to the end that your duties may be clearly comprehended and faithfully performed. All that you need to do to come up to the full measure of your duty Is to exorcise your common sense and conscience along the lines of fairness and justice with sober, thoughtful and unprejudiced minds.

The result of your deliberations and findings is important to the parties charged with violations of law to see that no injustice is done them, which is within your power to prevent, and it is also important to society that all violators are properly prosonled for trial. In this connection it is proper to that some cases get past the Grand Jury where the prosecution is prompted by malice, hatred, revenge or some other equally unworthy motive. Where tho evidence and circumstances disclose motives of trying to "get even" with somebody, or to punish somebody, or to avenge a personal wrong or injury, the best service you can render your county, or society in general, is to return "Not a Injured in Mine Accident Carson Compton, son of William of Coiiemiiiigh township, town, and burial was made in McDowell cemetery.
