The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1889-11-02

The States Attorney went on to say that Dr.
Cronin insisted that all of the evidence be sent
out to all the Camps; but up to the time OF
DR.. Cronin's death, the report had not been
sent out. 1t would have shown that they had
not only violated the laws OF the Order and OF
this country but also those of England, and
had robbed the Order of its funds and these
men OF their liberties. Only day or two after
Dr. Cronin's death, however, the report
of the trial was sent out. Dr. Cronin S
part of II. however, was rejected, and that part
which accused Cronin OF being traitor and a
perjurer was sent out. He claimed that they
would show that all this denunciation of DR.
Cronin was sent out over Alexander Sullvan's
signature, and that it was sent out after DR..
Cronin had disappeared, and in the belief that
his body would never be found 1t was not suf-
ficient TO make way with Dr. Cronin, but the
same unseen hand that regulated this conspir-
acy from its inception had TO make IL appear
also that Cronin was traitor.
For II DR.. Cronn had published his evidence
against the Triangle, as he was about to do II
meant the ruin Of the Triangle with the irish
poople, and to have 1t published to all their
Camps was to convict these men OF embezzling
these funds that had been accommodating for
years.
It would have proved them not only traitors
to the laws of two countries, but traitors 10 the
cause in which these people had enlisted; and
instead of doing that which was to benefit poor
old Ireland it would brand them the worst men
on the earth among the Irish people. That was
the object.
The States Attorney then went on to show
how Coughlin had begun denouncing Cronin as
spy way back in February; how Beggs, at
certain meeting OF Camp 20, had said that Dr.
Cronin's denunciation OF Sullivan and the Tri-
angle had to be stopped 'if 1t took blood"
Finally after several weeks delay, Beggs, as
Guardian of Camp 20, announced elat the Tri-

day the fiat at III Clark street was rented, the
trunk and furniture (Which were afterwards
moved TO the Carlson cottage), bought and the
preparations began for the murder
Tie States Attorney then went over the
whole story OF the conception and execution OF
the plot, which has so often been told.
Daniel Coughlin was seen before that In sa-
loon late Mt night. He declared that there was
u certain North Side man, leading Catholic,
that would soon bite the ground, or something
TO that effect O'Sullivan was with him that
night On the 4th OF May this man Coughlin
went over to Dinan's livery stable. Mr.. Cough

that day and told Mr.. Dinan that he had friend

telephoned T. O'Sullvan to 60 out He was
seen in the neighbophood with q man answer
ing his description. About 7:l5 o'clock in the
evening q man goes and wants the horse that
Coughln had ordered. When the livery man
hitched up white horse the man objected, but
the livery man said that was the only one he
could give him. and he took the horse
and buggy and drove away. Later he
drove TO DR.. Cronin's office, presented
O'Sullivan's card and stated that one of
O'Sullivans men had his leg mashed and that
the Doctor was wanted right away. DR.. Cronin
hurried out and. with m N, drove to the Carl
son cottage. We will pr.ve that Coughlin was
seen going into the Carlson cottage. We will
prove that this man drove DIR. Cronin to the
Carlson Cottage. Wo will prove that the horse
