Allen Weaver, who was an eye
witness to the killing of Dick Ad-
ans on the 18th inst. by Dave

of the sad affair:
Morris had warrant for the ar

and said:
"Adams, consider yourself under
arrest, for | have warrant for YOU"
"You can't arrest me-" replied
Adams, at she same time drawing a
pistol from his saddle>pockets.
81 will arrest you," said Morris.
"You won't, Cd damn you,
Adams persisted, and presented a
pistol at Morris.
Morris then fired and broke Ad-
ans left arm above the elbow joint
the bullet entering his body In the
left side, Adams still trying to cock
his pistol. Morris fired two more
shots, when Adams cursed and
asked him not to shoot any more.
The three shots entered the left side
in the region of the heart. Adams
walked about 80 steps and fell dead.
These are the facts in the case,
