CHARLEY McNAueHroN, of Upper
Sqnaw creek, acted as guide for Good
all and Coffin, and arrived at the scene
of the murder Of Coffin a few minutes
after the shooting. Goodall arrived
there first. Mr.. McNaughton says he
could see nothing in the manner or
talk of Mr.. Morgan, at whose cabin
the murder was committed, to war
rant suspicion that he was in with
Cottner. Morgan told who did the
shooting, and how it was done, with
out any hesitancy. Mr.. McNaughton
says it was Goodall and not Morgan
that ACTED strangely. Both Harry
Behr and McNaughton believe that
Goodall, from his position, saw the
shooting and saw Cettner running
away, hut was afraid to try to arrest
him. Cotti,er ran within twenty or
thirty yards Of Behr, but as the latter
was not armed. he kept concealed.
