United States v. Faw, 1 D.C. 456 (D.D.C. 1807).
Opinion
at July term, 1808, quashed the indictment, being of opinion that it did not set forth an offence at common law, or under the statute; inasmuch as by the common law, the coroner was not bound to put down in writing the evidence, or the effect of it, and the statute required it to be done only when, by the inquisition, some person is indicted for murder or manslaughter.
