yard the left foot apparently in the stirup he
was leaning to the left; the horse was leaving
the walk in a slow motion, making apparently
a circle; he was getting his horse under con
,tfol for forward movement; my opinion was
thht as he got bis foot into the strip he started
the horse when having the rein drawn on one
side, did not ut once make straight forward
movement

so long az you could count one, two, three,
four, five, from the time Of the report Of the

sion was, that when he came forward from the
Presidents box, that the Presinent had boen
assassinated; ] was so much under that i'm.

after the person on that horse had gone of, !.
that informed the people in the alley that
