Marks ia a barber by trade, and for some years has conducted a shop near the American House, on Military street. This is the second time in his life that Marks has been confined in the St. Clair county jail upon a charge of murder.

Brown and B. C. Farrand appearing as attorneys for the defence. On the trial it was shown that Murphy was a much larger man than Marks, who was then but a boy of 18 years, and also that Murphy was the aggressor, and the jury believed that when Marks hit him with a club, inflicting the injuries which caused death, that he was acting on the defensive, and accordingly returned a verdict of not guilty, on the 21st day of December, 1876. Jacob P. Haynes and Dr. C. R. Hubbard were two of the jurymen who tried Marks and they assure the Republican that they are still of the opinion that Marks was justified in striking the blow, and that he had no intent to kill Murphy."
