On being cross-examined by Killeen,
witness said no order for assassination
was ever received from the Fsnian

given from the Assassination society.
Joseph Mullett was the man responsible
fer this conspiracy. He (w1tness) would
never be here if he was connected only
with the Fenian society. From the Fenian
brotherhood this Assassination society was
established. He had been duped and de-

Carley. He saw Joseph Brady
repeatedly at the meetings.

of the whole business. He saw it was
sham and delusion. good only for those
who lived by it. He knew only a mite
about the society to some of those in the
dock. During the seven or eight years he
had been in the society, it was not always
alive, and sometimes they had no places of
