When first arrested, Captain West con-

| possession week ago last Sunday night;
it had been in the drawer of a writing
desk IN the livery stable for some time; l
| took it from desk and cleaned it no on
| that Sunday night; at the head of the
! stairs I met Martin Flynn; he
asked to see the revolver, which L had in
my hand; I let him take it; he then asked
to borrow it until next day; refused; he
! placed it in his pocket and said he would
keep it until next day az all events; I

placed another cartridge in the chamber;
