Dr. the KEYS. they rolled

after searching the body for the keys, they rolled
it up in the bed clothes and placed in the bed.
They secured the door and went 10 work on
The vault to open it. Whilst al this work, MIR.
Weaver came TO the door and knocked, and call
ed TO Jesse, Mr.. Baker, TO let him in. Some dis
pute ensued between Brown and Madison, which
should kill Weaver; and il was insisted tina: Mad
ison should, as he had killed Baker, but he retu-
sed, sa, ing that he had done his share and would
do no more. Brown opened tie door and placed
himself behind ii, and as Weaver passed into the
room, struck him over the head with bar oil IRON
ON the second blow he iell, and attempting 10
rise Brown thrust sharp iron bar through his
head. Ennis in his statement, does not confirm
the report of the firing OF the pistols. but says.
that having heard that Weaver was shot, he ask
ed Madison about it, and he tod him that no pis
tol had been fired and that they had no weapons
but The bar of iron ment oned. From the state
mcnt it would seem that all Of them had beaten
Weaver.
After some further effort at the vault, finding
they could not get into il Madison left; WarrIck
Sewell and Brown remained a short time, then
fred the house in five different places, came out,
locked the door and went up the alley month from
the house and threw The key away. Brown took
with him a gold watch and blue cloth cloak,
which he said he had thrown away for fear OF de-
lection, tut did not say where.
ii seems from lne SldleIlGDlS, THAT W
the morning following, was in company with all
oe them and many OF the facts he got from others
besides Madison. Warrick and Sewel said
but little about il. Madison had with him or
the morning following, the bar of iron with
which the deed was executed, and Ennis having
learned the office it had performed, took II and
threw il into privy ia the rear OF Leah house.

On one end and claws on the other, one OF the
Claws partly broken, agreeing fully with Ennis's
description.
There are many other minor statements but
the above is the substance. The communca
ton OF Madison appears 10 have been made with
out solicitation, and without any injunction OF
secrecy.
.eah and her husband confirm Ennis's state
ments as 10 the lime ne came home. and the time
Madison came IN. They heard the conversation
but not sufficiently distinct 10 understand 1t. II
NAV be well, however, TO remark, as a further
confirmation OF Ennis statements, that yeSter-
dayaiadison's coat was found IN the loft of Leah's
house besmearel with blood. Flom all that we
can sa,hrr it does not appear that tie scheme
had been long cuncncted, or that they mad very
well matJred their plan OF operations.
