TIE ENkA BOND TRIAL.
HILLssoao, ILL.,, Dec. 21.-The Gross ex-
animation of Clement in the Bond trial
was very thorough and long, but he bore
il unfinchingly, and adhered to his direct
testimony. This coatradists in some par
siculars the evidence OF several of the wit
nessss for the prosecution, especially as to
his whereabouts during the afternoon
the outrage was committed, bat he posi-
lively maintained he was rsadingI and
sleeping in the wagon in widow Pettis'
yard from 2:30 till 6 O'Clock, and that he
saw Jno. G. Montgomery and Lee PetSis
at the house of Mrs. Pettis during the
afternoon, and within the hours the out
rage was alleged to have been done. The
first witness this morning was Lee Pettis.
He went over about the same ground as
Clement yesterday, stating he was at
home all day, and was in the wagon with
Clement part of the afternoon, and that
Jno. G. Montgomery was at the house for
| dinner and supper. He was no nearer the
school that Gay than his mothers house.
He had nothing to do either directly or in
| directly with the outrage. He first say
| AxlAno 1SIO ody WHO'LL BIO C6L1O w LIS
mothers house at night, and told them she
ksd been outraged by two
tramps, in dark clothes and white
| shirts. The witness then described how
they took Miss Bond, as in her statement
to her father, and how he, with Clement
| and his mother, on the way home reused
| several Of the neighbors, and told them
| about the matter. After reaching home
ho tn 10 VIII 70
crowd had assembled, and told what the
crowd did. Said Swsck and Heinlin told
him that Clement and Montgom-
cry had confessed and that if he (Pettis)
knew anything he had better confess. He
told thsm he didn't know anything and
positively denied the truth of the convict
examined for an hour, but his direct testi-
nony was not broken. Mrs. John G.
Montgomery was the aext witness She
testified thas the day Of the outrage she
| took dinner and supper with the Potts
family. She told where her husband,
John Montgomery, Clement and Les
Psttis were that day and evening, cerrobo-
rating the testimony of Clement and
Pettis.
Mrs. Montgomery continued her testi-
J
very CLOSELY cross examined regarding tbs
whereabouts OF Clement and Pettis that
afternoon, and as to Miss Bonds visit TO
the house, bnt her evidence was SO closely
identical with that of the defendants that
the prosecution failed to make any points
Off her.
Mrs. Ona Potts and Minnis Petite, sister of
Lac Pettis, we're examined as to the whereabouts
of Lee Pettis and Clenenti on the day of the
outrage. Their testimony wac very similar to
that of Mrs. Montgomery. Both stated their
brother and Clement were at home all the after
noon and evening AID described what they did
during the various hours OF the day. The court
then adjourned till next Wednesday. So far the
defense has produced some strong evidence IN
FAVOR of an abb, but the prosecution claims
they have witnesses who will overthrow it.
