He is very respectable appearing young
man, and says he is in the employ of j.

explanation of his conduct he said that his
horse was very fractions one, and he was
unable to manage it when the other two

and was not intoxicated at the time. He
would have stopped at the time of the &C.

affair. James Young, the deceased, was
horse dealer by occupation. He leaves
