before Z O'Clock, states that he observed man
standing on the porch talking TO some person,
and he heard woman's voice. He could not give
a satisfactory description of the man, however.
During Yesterday nothing else was talked
about OF thought of in Germantown but the
murder. Parties came from all directions and
gazed at the house, Which is at present without
occupant and securely fastened and watched.
