boat; did not not tell him they lived in .
boat: the day came down and went to him
and told him that they were mp the river in
time; don't think he asked me; he did M t
ask me il they were up the river, told
him; we had no sail while was up at
Koundcu.; we pulled the boat; the fisher
mans hut We slept in was ON the east side
of the river below Roundout, near the water;
nobody occupied ii wi b us that night; it
WAS about q mile from koundOut; can't
say what time We reached the hut; 1t was
late at night; all three remained in the hut
tha. night: af:er our return to New York,
parted with them early in the morning: we
went ashore and went TO Smith 4 McVl's
and got breakfast: then left them; it must
have been close ontoS O'Clock: Idon't know
where they went; l did not see: took ear:
left them standing on the corner: the way
came to inform Waliing when he was talk
ing about this letter that it might be to the
lighthouse at Roundou., was because was
going to Roundout: must have looked at
the directions on the letter when brought
ii on from Philadelphia: it was six months
before l spoke oft to Walling, and although
had been in the interim to Roundout with
Mosher, did no. remember the directions;
on the Eighth avenue cars; had regular
car one week, the rest of the
time stood extra; l can't say
what week it was l had a regular car;
| think it was the third Week, was there
"a month; the last week had regular work
but not one case all the time; the books of
the company viii show whether had regu-
lar work on either the Sd or the 4ih week:
can't say what time on the day it was that
saw the advertisement saul of Tansus"
can't fix the time: think it was before
dinner: used to take my dinner at the de-
pot: the paper saw this in was in the wait
ing room: can't say how long waited at
the time; after read II did nothing that l
reeollect: the depo. is at Eight Avenue and
Fiftiesh street: after reading that l came
down town on my trip: the end Of the route
is at the Astor House: made the return
trip: am no: certain whether it was that or
the next afternoon Superintendent Walling
sent for me: l don't remember whether it
was that day or the next day.: can't say
what day it was: don't know what day of
the week l saw him on: nor do know the
day OF the week: think saw this personal
in the paper on the day of its published l
think so because it is no, very often that old
papers are LAYING around in the waiting
room, the book in which made the entry is
in New York al home: the slip read obout
was cut from paper got here since the
trial has been going on: fought the paper:
kaye ie money TO one Of the officers OF the
Court TO try il: can't say wha. stage of The
trial this was: while / was working on the
Eighta Avenue cars seen Mosher and Dong
lass: think it was in the first week Of No
vemter: / saw D)ugiaSs first al Mrs. Nor
ris: it was before the advertisement = Saul
of Tansus" appeared: before saw it don't
know when it appeared: this interview at
Madam Morris was no. by day il
was in the evening. l saw Douglass
/ did Eot see Mosher: Douglas came back
| in abou. fifteen minutes. AMI ! went up to
( Houston and Allen streets with my sister
I AMI Douglas, and we saw Mosher. we went
10 the corner of Stanton street. and Doug
( las and stood talking: Mosher talked 10
nv sister: We talked abou. half an hour: !
can't remember the subject of the converse
tom q: the end of the half hour Mosher.
/ Douglas and myself wen, over towards the
Bowery towards the North Run: l left
them a. Desbrosses street. took a car. and
went: il was after 10 O'Clock when left
them: il was not after II: it was, should
! judge. couple of weeks after this inter-
view with them that l saw the personal in
the Herald; am not in the habit of exam
ming the personals in the New York Herald;
never saw any other personals that l
thought referred to the Ross case: previous
TO this reading of the personal in the
Hsrald. had no knowledge that any ap-
| poin, ment had been made at hotel: the
only knowledge tat l. had about
there were any negotiations going on was
what Walling told me, that they were re-
ceiving lottery here constantly: l had
knowledge from Superintendent: Walling
| prior to seeing that personal, that letters
were being received here, and that they
were being-answered through the personals;
he did not show me any of those letters be-
| fore saw that personal: / did not see them
until after the killing: know no reason
| why the children were taken back to my
| house on the 18th of December, the night OF
the killing: thought they were to be left
there that Eight when took
them there; l can't for certain say why
| they did not remain; the children finally left
nv house in January: they went then to his
parents: don't know where Mosher staid
that night: l did not hear from him, or in
his presence that night, at Madame Morals,
where he was going to stay that night; l
| am not cer.a'u whether registered Wright,
Walker or Watson a. the Van Dyke House,
can't say which: can give no reason why
Douglas and l signed fictitious names
which commenced with the first letter of
our real name: l had no reason for giving
fc itious name at all.
