CoNTRADICTED.-Ith has been contradict
ed that there was anything "queer" in
the manner of Harry Roberts when he
informed Farwelrs family that Dick was
shot" Mr.. FarwelI himself is said to
contradict it. But has sac0rn Evidence be-
fore the jury was substantially as follows !:
That Harry went to his house, went in,
sat down on the lounge, and, as nearly as
witness could remember, said something
about the weather being cold; then he
said that he chad TROUBLE ON HIS
MIND" and that "DICK WAS SHOT"
This was what Farwell swore to, and quite
likely it is true. Another significant FACT
is: That after going to the church
with Farwell, and informing the meeting
of the shooting, Harry WENT HOME, instead
of going with the crowd to the scene of
the murder.
