difficulty in deciphering the writing, but was
helped out of his difficulty by Guiteau, who
finished the sentence for him

The reading of the letter was then conclud

afraid to run him. This leaves the way open
| for your presidency on your own account.
Strike out right and left. The American peo
pie like pluck, and in 1884 we will put you in

in his opening address yesterday.

The prisoner-"They are all that I ever

District attOrney-"I propose to identify by
this witness, some letters left by the prisoner
at the cigar stand in the depot"
The Prisoner-"Those letters are all correct,
every one of then.''
On cross examination Mr.. Scoville inquired
as to two letters written by Guiteau to Gen.
Garfield III Mentor. Witness recOllected the
letters referred to, one written in October,
1880, and the other in January, 1881, and said
they were probably now among papers be-
longing to the estate, of which there were
twenty nine boxes full in the fire proof vault
in the building occupied by the bureau of en-
craving and printing"
The prisoner remarked that those two let
ters, as he understood, had been published
last July.
Scoville proposed that printed copies be in
trOduced in evidence.
The district attorney said he had never seen
them.
Scoville !"The October letter was dated
from New York and was substantially like
this: 'GEN. GARFIELD-Ia am an applicant for
the Austrian mission. l expect to marry
lady of this city of great wealth in few
days."
