get back on the force; on the 7th Of July h
was in and out; remember him going t.
different parties on different days on the pO
lice affair; can't exactly say; / know it wal
about the police affair all the time; he CANT
home every day, and would ask him how HI
had succeeded; he was not away from home
any time in July; he was not away any NIGH
in the month Of July; after left Philadel
phia in April couldn't exactly say when
first saw William Mosher; remember see
ing him in August; Isaw him twice between
the 11th and 14th; / can't think whether
saw him before or not; it was after the con-
fnement Of his wife; my husband did not
see him on both occasions; on the first occa-
sion he came intoamy house about 2O'clock;
was sewing; and he asked me where my
husband was, and told him he was 00t;
shouldn't think he remained. more than
twenty minutes; asked him how his family
was, and if Martha had baby, and 1t 1t
was born on the 4th of July; he said he
didn't know when it was born; his wife was
born on the 4th of July and she had said to
me that she would like her baby to be born
on that day; she afterwards told me it
was born on the 13th;> he went away,
and said he would call again in
a day or SO: think it was day or two
after that saw him my husband got let
ter from his lawyer, Colonel Fellowes, on
the day Mosher made his second call the
purport of that letter was to appear as pos
sible in his case he was backing his shoes
to 60 when Moshcr came in on the first oc-
casion MOsher came by himself and the
second time Douglass was with him he
asked my husba1d where he was going !;
my husband was hurrying as quick as he
could to 60 to his lawyer M0sher said he
would till he came back to see what success
he had my husband came back with the
letters it was about noon when Mosher and
Douglass came, and he remained there until
they got back between 2 and 3 o'clock my
husband brought letter from his lawyer,
saying counsel fee and your fee was $50 !;
nothing occurred we had dinner then;
think they stayed till after dinner; can't
say positively that the three went out to-
gether, but 1t seems to me they did.
think the next time l sa y Mosher and
Douglass, was after Mrs. Mosher came to
our house; she came with the four children
on August Goth, about 81 O'Clock in the
morning my husband was going on a pic
mic before should nave said thst the 4th of
cuAy PAS-hN was Ghdt VI Gil OStS W.
A. r., and that that Of the 5th, was the j.
J. O'Brine Cluq, and the picnic of August
Goth, was Father Mooney's my husband
was employed on these pic-nics by the par
ties who had the bars, and who paid him
for tending bar he did not get paid on the
picnic of August Goth, for three or four
days after; it was four or five days after
that that saw Moshcr or Douglass can't
say whether they came together or not, but
Mosher came anyway it was very early in
the morning suppose he came to see his
wife; i never invited him to come and see
us; can't say when l next saw either
Mosher or Douglass don't recollect either
of them coming there after that; Mrs.
Mosher came there on the Goth of August,
with her four children, and occupied the
same room I did.
Her eldest child was Willie, ,aged nine years,
the second Charlie, sometimes called "Lovie
Dotie," aged years last March, the next
was Georgia, aged months, lin August 1874
and the next the badly whom Mrs. Mosher
said was then weeke old when she came
to our house; George is row dead with
the exception of the baby these are the
same children that sho had when was liv-
ing with her in Monroe street.
as they called him "Lovie Dovie."
Ale had blue eyes, light hair, round
full face, rough, coarse skin the hair was
very light and did not curl.
Q-What relation was Mrs. Mosher to
your husband.
A-She was his sister. am no relation
to Mr.. Mosher, and would not want to he
Mrs. Mosher remained at my house off and
on for four months after she came from
Philadelphia; during that time did not
see Mosher or Douglass except the times l
have mentioned before Mrs. Mosher came
on on the Goth of August my husband was
once, away over night but can't say exactly
when it was somewhere around the 14th
of August about the time Mosher and
Douglass were at our house knew he was
going away as he told me of it,
he said he was going to help his sister move;
I think that was the time he took the seven
o'clock train on and came back in the three
o'clock train; the next day he said it was
2.25 train; Imade mistake when stated
he went and came on the trains just |
on June 25th; he was gonelonger
than that in June, know he was; Mrs. |
Mosher left our house some time in Janu-
ary, 1875; / had not been living at 29S
Henry street all that time; moved to 1853
Madison street Oh the 21st of September or
October, and Mrs. Mosher moved with me;
this house was also tenement house, but
had stores underneath; we occupied there
three rooms on the third floor front; paid IS
rent for them month; the house was not
Is respectable looking as the Henry street
)ne.
@. What was your husband doing all this
l.. IL
he time you moved to Madison street!
A. Part of the time he was trying to get
IN the cars, and part Of it he was on them;
sometimes he worked at Wash
ngton Market; he would work a
lay at anything he conld get;
lc got on the Eighth avenne cars finally as
onductor; Superintendent Walling gave
lin letter to go on the cars and also one
o the Fire Commissioners to 60 on the
Fire Department.; that letter have seen and
lave in my possession still; neither Mosher
