! called Mr.. Jenkins attention to the matter,
and ne gave me no satisfactory answer to
my question as to why they were not sepa-
! rated; then wished TO sec the notes; he
| said they were down stairs in the vault;
told him | wished to see them, and sent
| porter down after them; he brought up
trunk of notes, and upon opening it l found
q large amount Of State currency, evidently
insufficient to account for those items l had
seen; then began to suspect that there was
something out of the way; in examing the
making up of the cash discovered certain
entries in the book for which there
was no corresponding items of cash !;
while calling off the items Jenkins picked
up q piece of paper and called off from that,
and when I asked him for the cash which
that paper represented, he said at first, look
ing down that il was in trunk standing un-
| der his desk; he endeayored to put me OIL; L
glanced in the trunk and saw several small
bundles Of notes, which | knew were not
sufficient 10 account for the large items; !
asked him where the money was; he replied
that it was there, again referring me to the
| trunk; he afterward said that he did not
know where it was; then looking up into my
face, he declared himself ruined man.
Q. What did he say? A. 81 am ruined

q. What else did he say A. Then he
said to me that he had taken the money,
and mentioned the name OF Earle.
Mr.. Stuart objected.
Justice Ledwith sustained the objection.
