which district the accused was headman. He ordered certain of his followers and dependents to
go out, seize and bring before him one S. This order was obeyed and S. was brought to the
house of the accused and there bound and detained until night. Accused then ordered his
dependents to take S. to an old Chinese cemetery, an isolated place, and there kill him. He
reinforced his orders as headman by asserting that he had an order f from the governor that S.
should be executed. In obedience to these orders and under this representation S. was taken to
the cemetery and killed. That the accused was guilty of the crime of murder by inducement.
