whether Moses asked for light in the office
{ that night: Donnelly told me to shut up the
h rlse: be would go to bed no hoarders tf
that know of down stairs: no difficulty oi
their going ont If the house that night if
they pleased Moses and Dunnellv were
friends when they went up stairs: could get
in if there was a window in reach, or break
in: there is green blind in my room i did
not look out to see if the shutter of 81 was
Iopen or CLOSED: the weather was pretty
warm: was porter at the Sea View: the
