In June of last year, a Tyrolean was arraigned on a charge of murdering a schoolchild from Imst and was sentenced to life imprisonment. The Tyrolean, a typesetter by profession and employed for thirty years, to the complete satisfaction of the proprietor, in a printing plant in Innsbruck, had attempted to justify his action by testifying that he had been frightened of the schoolchild from Imst, but the jury did not believe him, for the typesetter, who was actually born in Schwaz and whose father had earned great respect as the master of the Tyrolean guild of butchers, was six foot two tall and, as the jury determined in the courtroom, was capable of lifting a three-hundred-pound ball six feet off the ground without faltering. The Tyrolean had murdered the schoolchild from Imst with a so-called mason’s mallet.
