Opinion of the Court

Willson, Judge.

As presented to us in the record, the proof is not evident that the applicant committed the horrible murders with which he stands charged. We, therefore, reverse the judgment denying him bail, and grant him bail in the sum of six thousand dollars, upon giving which, in accordance with the law in such case provided, he will be released from custody.

Ordered accordingly.
