arrested he wore his dark hair cut
close, and his face, which was If red or
florid complexion, was destitute Of
beard-a faint ,noustache only being
observable ON his upper lip. His
speech is slow and measured, and his
language shows that he has but limit
ed education.
He wore dark coat and vest-a
well work and rather ragged pair oi
pants ending inside Of his bootlegs. into
which they were stuffed. On his head
he wore a black cap Of the railroad
pattern. At first glance his features
would he said to indicate but little
more than ignorance and an ordinary
disposition. but during an Interview

two occasions there was a flash of the
eve that gave very sinister appear
ence to his expression.

(JOHN /. WENT.l
On Friday afternoon, Oct. 5tb, 1873,
two men walked into Pilot Grove,
Cooper County, on foot, coming from
the direction of Sedalia, on the railroad
track. One was q small man, respecta-
bly, dressed, carrying large and pecu-
liarly marked cane. The other was a
very tall man. rather stability attired.
They went into . store and the small
man asked for
A GLASS OF BEER
They were told BY the merchant that
he had nothing but bottled beer, and
that they would have to buy q bottle
g be could not sell them . glass The
smaller man replied that they only
wanted two glasses, and they left the
store. From there they went to a
drug store and

asked Mr.. Harris for something. tina.
he now forgets. but did not have.
After this the two men departed.
going from Pilot Grove out into the
country in . Dorthwesterly direction.
The next that Is heard of them that
evening. they went to q farm house,
about one and . quarter miles from
Pilot Grove, and asked for q drink of
water. Here, too, they inquired
THE ROAD 10 BooNvnLE
They were told that they had passed
the road that branches off to Boon
vile. After they reached the gate
they parleyed few moments. and one
of them pointing westwardly, they con-
tinued on their original course instead
of going back to the Boonville road.
About . mile and Q half from this
point they went into an orchard of a
Mr.. Haley and gathered some apples.
Mrs. Haley saw them, but As her hus-
band Was absent she was afraid to 20
near them u order them away. After
filling their pockets With apples they
continued their course on the Briants
bottom road, until. at . distance of .
mile from Kaley's orchard, they came
to
A SMALL DESERTED CABIN
built of logs. The cabin is in . corn
field about one hundred feet from the
road, and owned by Cornelius Canine.
1t had good roof, . fireplace, etc,
and formed . very comfortable place
to camp for the night, which they re-
solved to do. They put some straw
on the floor, tore out the dry chinking
from between the logs, and built Q FIRE
in the fireplace.
The next morning Saturday
Mr.. MERIDETH,
who rents the land upon which the
cabin stands, sent his two sons to

the cabin, to feed his stock on Sun.

there and entered the gate in front of
