therein, if they were in the front
part of the store I don't know
how wide that barber pole is.
They are foot boards, there is fcur
nailed together, they stand edgeways to-
ward the windows; | could not exactly
tell how wide it is; that barber pole
stands at the edge of the sidewalk in
front of the windows of the double door,
no portion of it standr IN front OF the
window in the side door; person of my
height standing by the side of the chair
on the floor where | stood on the ID day
of Nov, 1874, at the time of the difficulty
could not look over the panes of glass
which are painted in the side door and
see any person or persons IN Lewis
store through the side window; the win
dows are all in front of the barber shop;
nv chair is right in front of the double
| door, one-half of the window is on the
| side, the half window | could not see
through over to Lewis store or on the
| sidewalk to the street; my chair was
then and is now in the back portion of
| the barber shop, being the third barber
| chair back from those doors; at the in
slant l heard the first report of the piss
| toll looked right over to where the re-
port was; at that time there were two
barber chairs and two persons between
me and those double doors; could not
tell if was cutting the boys hair at that
time; I don't think | was, the boy was
in tho chair; / was standing beside the
chair in which the boy was sitting; it
was the barber chair at which | worked !;
the door of the barber shop being closed
and the barber pole being removed | or
any one could look out of that window
and see any person or persons whatever
on the sidewalk in front of Lewis store;
| could see them better on the sidewalk
than on the street; that is as correct and
true as all or any portion of my testi-
mony given for the defense in this case;
when heard the first report-we all did
went to the door; did not take the
boy out of the barber chair; | did not
attempt or start to take the boy out OF
the barber chair; l did not remain at the
barber chair after | heard the first report,
l started right for the window; would
like to explain why l said took the boy
out of the barber chair.
regard to that matter which he desires.
The reason why | said that took the
boy out of the chair, | did not want to
be a witness in the case, was not under
oath at the time and | could say anything
to keep off the witness stand; John Tit
Ter was there, he seen all that occurred
. that did not touch the boy at all.
