J. PRANK WALKER.
Of His Trial a; skowhegan
His Own Testimony.

SKowHEGAs, Oct. Is.
3 About 80 Witnesses have been examined on
the part of the respondent and Monday the
wife of J. Frank Walker testified that she
heard only the first and second shots from the
guns of tie serenaders before she swooned
and knew nothing more until it was all over.
Mrs. Mary Walker, mother of the respondent,
testified that she was at her home, but heard
the noise plainly, three quarters of a mile
distant.
Tuesday, J. Frank Walker, the respondent,
testified that he was awakened by the ringing
OF COW bells, pounding on tin dishes, blowing
OF trumpets and firing of guns. That it was
too dark to distinguish objects outside, but
he could see persons around the house. That
he was greatly alarmed and from their move
ments supposed they were attempting to
break into his house. He heard them threaten
to smash in and take them out"
His wife swooned from fright. He took his
revolver and went out into the wash room and
fired through the window twice, thinking to
frighten them away. Then he heard them on
the piazza and went iuto the entry and about
that time he thought they were trying to
break down the door and he fired out through
the side light of the door, He didn't intend
TO hit any one and didn't see any one in front
of the side light and heard no voice after he
fired, saying, ~ am shot! He denied every
admission testified to by various witnesses
called by the State, claiming that whatever
he did was in his fright and in defence of his
home and his wife.
He was still under cross examination,
Tuesday night. The court room was so
densely packed with spectators that it was
quite impossible to pass through the room. A
great many women came in the early morning
and brought their lunch and remained through
the entire day so they may not lose their
places to hear.
Judge Foster sits patiently day after day.
seeming never to lose a word of the testimony
as it is given.
The testimony in the Walker murder trial
closed today. Thursday, S. J. Walton will
make the closing argument for the respondent
and j. o. Bradbury for the State. The
arguments will consume the entire day and
the case given to the jury Friday morning.
Public opinion seems divided as to the
result OF the trial as between acquittal. ma n
slaughter or disagreement.
