CONFESSION Of BaSns-Sincc the conviction
and sentence of Burns the newspaper reporters
have been allowed to visit and converse with
him upon the prominent facts in issue at the
trial. Although somewhat coy and reserved
when at first Intercepted, yet he has aaknowl-
edged to all the material facts. He confesses
that he did strike the murdered woman first
with handy billy, and then cut her in the side
with his knife, as was proven at the trial. But
in addition to what was shown in court, he
states that the woman was not killed before the
company ZANE down the hill, just as day was
breaking on Friday Morning Oscar Myers, it
seems, suggested TO Burns, after they had come
down, that he (Burns) mad better 90 back and XII
the woman 10 prevent her from tesiifyiaga against
him aud all the rest of them. They did go back,
and found the woman standing up trying TO dry
her clothes Burnsand Myers talked to her about
half an hour, when Myers, with that iendish
aest which his hideous physiognomy would cas-
liz Suggest began 10 incite Burns to do the
deed, or else it would soon be too late So
Burns up with stone, threw it and hit her on
the head, when she fell. He followed that
throw up with Two others. Myers then came
up and bit her, and as soon as he had done so,
immediately ran to one side, thinking, as Burns
suggests, that he had given the fatal blow
Burns then took up large sharp stone, and
hurled it down twice on her head until her skull
xas broken through and her brains oozed out.
He then hit her several times after this with
another stone When he and Myers left she
was dead.
