walked on crutches about the place. He
complained Of his ankle. He and Harold
regularly took their meals at tho house and
Booth kept up appearances well. one day
at the dinner table The conversation turned
ON the assassinationof the President, whom
Booth denounced the murder in the sever
est terms, saying there was no punishment
severe enough Tor tho perpetrators.
The two CARROTS, who lived on the
place, say they haduo idea that the parties
were any other than what their friends re-
ported them, paroled confederate soldiers,
on their way home. They also say, that
when the cavalry appeared in that vicinity
and they heard they we're looking for the
assassin, they sent word to them that these
two men was on the place. In other words,
they assert they are entirely innocent Of
giving the assassius aid and comfort, know
ing them to be such.

head and breast are alone exposed to view,
the lower portion Of the body, including
the hands aud feet being covered with

accused existence, entered on the left side
atthe back Of the neck, point curiously
enough not far distant from that in which
his victim our lamented President was
shot. No orders have yet been given as 10
