of the death of Mr.. M'Crcdie, the said Va

otherwise he would have been punished
He heard it whispered among the soldiers

The affidavit Of Lawson Flack, who saith,
that on the night of "Wednesday the fourth
day Of February, 1907, (he thinks little
after eight O'Clock } he heard the alarm ben
rung, and ran to assist in putting out the FIRE
that on the way he met Mr. John M'Credie,
at the corner of the pailings near Hallam's
tavern that the said M'Crcdie had no
buckets in his hands that he asked this af-
faint which way they should go /; and it was
concluded togo by the barracks as the near
est route that as they both ran towards the
FIRE, which was at the house Of Mr.. Shields,
between the barracks and the bank, Mr.
M'Credie fell in going down the hill that
the night was very dark that as they en-
tered the platform before the barracks Mr.
MCredie being about three feet ahead of
this afhant, the centinel hailed him, saying
"Who comes there I" That the said cent?
mel advanced towards Mr.. M'Credic, whe-
Their before he hailed him or not, this afiiant
IS uncertain, but thinks it was little before
he hailed him at all (; that his attitude in
advancing, appeared TO be that Of charging
bayonet; that the centinel hailed a second
time, Mr.. MsCrcdic being then at the point
of the bayonct; that as he hailed the second
time, MIR. M'Credie gave back, and said,
who are you That the centiuel hailed a
third time, very quickly after the second,
and nearly at the same moment, fired his
musket, without waiting for an answer, and
shot Mr.. M'Crcdie through the body that
just as the centinel hailed the second time,
this affiant called out "It is Mr.. Mere
die;" speaking loud enough for n man to
hear him az the distance OF fifteen or twcn-
ty yards, and being at that time not more
than six feet from the ccntinel that MIR.
M'Crcdic, after he was shot, called on Capt
Quarter, and then fell to the ground that
