Cross eN. In tracing ball certain we did not
cut the artery; Dr. Baxter and myself did the
cutting; am not certain which one cut near the
sub-clayian artery; had before traced lower
wounds, and taken out ball had concluded that
was cause OF death, but spent much more time
looking for second; second wound might NOT
have proved fatal. nor disabling. if il had moi
cut the artery if it had, it would have causcC
death in few minutes; he would have been help
| less very shortly the lower one would be fatal al
once; cannot tell by direction of bullet the aim
of pistol; it may be detected burning will noI
| blister body after death. but Will burn; in this
case the Skin was burned SO as to come Off but
was not hlistered: impression is that after death
| burning will make skin come of easily: the
| second shot would produce no blood in Il very
short time after death; in this case the second
wound produced very little blood :; it could have
bled but little for lack of cavity; the upper
one bled most externally; from first wound
blood would flow into chest but a few seconds
marked the bullet with an Y /; can't tell size OF
| bore of pistol ii was fired from.
Direct resumed. Noticed burned clothing be
fore the body was disturbed; the cinders on
shirt remained nearly entire; by disturbing the
| body it would fall to pieces.
WEDNESDAY, oct. :.
The prisoner appeared this morning with her man
ner Iihe ubdued but still swept to her place with
the air of being the least concerned of the specta-
tors. The silk plaid skirt came out again with the
clearing weather, and Il new and handsome tie re

It cOuft waiting the coming OF witness she related
to her counsel some long and apparently interesting
story emphasized by mods, smiles and gestures The
attendance was light in the morning but in the af
tcrnO0n SWclled to Il large audience of which Il
siderable portion was ladies.
