New Britain to get my little daughter {; in my conversation with Jennie on Thursday morn ing talked with her about her having to leave home when her sister returned; told her that if she kept staying out nights and disgracing herself and us we should try and find another place for her this conversation was in the presence of Blanche Douglass I cannot tell how long the conversation lasted l between myself and Jennie; she said nothing in reply think this was my last remark to her; I was not angry, but was nervous and excited Jennie told me at this time that she wanted to come home, but they would not ! let her; did not think Jennie would go away that morning, but am satisfied that | the Douglass woman induced her to go away as she appeared to have complete control over Jennie did not say to Jennie on that | Thursday stthis is the fourth time you have been out all night"
 Yes, I am sure that did not ..say so I did say to her ''you could have come home if you had wanted to;'' did say if the neigh | bors knew you stayed out you would lose | your good name.
 She said that the neighbors would not know that she had been out all night as she came home at noon; I know about her go- l ing to Coney Island and she was left by the boat; was with her and we both got left | it was year ago. (Question ruled out. Witness continued: Jennie did not have an acquaintance named Reilly and never had to | nay knowledge.
 No, did not see anything particular about | my daughters conduct on that Thursday morning. She said that Miss Douglass want | ed her to stay with her at the Elliott House, No6 yoc frNF, lat fo1- 11a,, k<1 | Douglass said that no gentlemen came to the hotel; told her she need not tell me that, as l gentlemen could go to every hotel in the | United States; when went to Malleys store l and inquired of James about Jennie, he told me that he supposed she was safe at home :; he did not admit that he knew where she 1 was he did not promise to see her home that | night, because he said he had an engagement for that evening to go to the shore; took no 1 means to find her in West Haven because I
 believed it lie when told that she was there When she was home that Thursday morn | ing she appeared tired and worn out
 | Redirect by MT. Bush-I remember the l time when James Malley, MT. Duff and 8 lady came for my daughter it was on the 12th of July; she said she met Miss Douglass
 at this time, and the Malleys said that Miss Douglass was cousin of theirs and belonged on Long Island she said they had 8 very l nice time; about, a week after she said she | went to Buelrs and that Walter Malley, James | Malley and Miss Douglass were in the party !; l this was week before she was murdered. l Mir. Malley was never at our house before the | 12th of July, when he came to take Jennie to l ride; believe he had accompanied her home 1 few times before. The witness here re- I hearsed the conversation had between her | self and Jennie and Blanche Douglass on the l Thursday morning that she was home for the
 last time. It did not differ materially from her first statement made on thO direct
 HoT1 low oa-fn lad EJac he lived at present at 70 Woodbine street,
 Brooklyn, N. Y. on August , resided on
 Dwight street, New Haven, and carried on
 card printing in Garfeld's building; first | knew Jennie Cramer in Northford, Conn.,; .; l think saw her there two or three times; think ! the first time saw her was two years ago; saw
 her there two or three seasons found out | who she was by inquiry of persons in the | town; I saw Jennie Cramer in New Haven | August ,; was not feeling well and did not
 go to my shop till afternoon; think started
 for home about quarter to $; stayed home | few minutes and then walked back to the
 shop where I stayed fifteen or twenty min
 utes; then I went home again, taking the
 horse car opposite my shop; stood on the
 left hand side of the rear platform as I was going by Redcliffe's saw Jennie Cramer; I
 was not positive until I looked the second
 time; she was in a carriage,a buggy think :;
 young man 21 or 9 years of age was with
 her; he wore small straw hat and I think
 he wore dark clothes the buggy was com
 ing down Chapel street and was between me
 and the Radcliffe building; the horse car was
 not moving very fast; did not know the
 young man, but thought had seen him in
 Edward Malley's store I connected him with l young man who put on necktie for me in l Malley's store about week before he stood
 near the door and I bought the necktie of
 him; this was in the daytime; the buggy, I
 think, turned to the right into Temple
 street have no doubt in my mind that
 the girl I saw was Jennie Cramer |;
 the girl wore 8 light hat and, I think, a light
 dress; should think it was considerable af-
 ter o'clock when I saw the buggy; don't
 think have seen the man since that time:
 I recognize man in this room whom think | was the man. Witness at request of Mir.
 Bollman selected that person and pointed to
 James Malley. I think he is the same man
 who sold me the necktie; I saw the same man
 in barber's chair in the jail while there with
 you (Bollman); fix the date on Friday when | I saw him and Jennie because went to Saw
 in Rock on the following day, which was
 Saturday; told my wife that I saw the girl
 on Friday evening in buggy with gentle
 man.
 | Cross-examination: I lived in Northford
 ten years more or less; went there first to
 learn the joiner's trade with my uncle Alfred B. Allen; worked for him off and on until
 went to work for myself; have no idea how long I worked for my uncle. The witness in
 reply to questions by MT. Fox then told of
 the different places where he had worked
 from the time he went to his trade.
 Witness continued: The first time I ever
 told the story have told here was to Mir.
 Bollman; he came to see at my shop on Chapel street; no one was present; he
 asked me if I knew about this
 case; told what had
 said that thought saw the Cramer girl and
 Malley together on Friday night told my l wife and brouther Sunday mor1ing the
 same story. I have since seen man on
 Chapel street near the pump that I thought | was the same man recognized in jail ; if he
 had not had on eye glassos Icould have sworn it was the same man since then have been
 in doubt about the identity of the man I saw
 in jail as being the one saw in the buggy on
 Friday night I am not acquainted with Mi
 chael Malley.
 This concluded MT. Aliens testimony, and
 8 recess was taken until Friday morning at 10 o'clock.
