He said could have $1,000, but he
wanted mo to be careful in using it. l
took it to the German Bank aud got
other money for it.
Capt. Dovcner understood the witness
to mean ttat he got another kind OF
money for the lagal tender no!cs, and
asked il that was not an unusual pro.
ceeding. He responded that he simply
got larger bills for those he had.
In answer to further questions by

lation. He never said anything to
Hennig about Harry LISTS having taken
the money. List aud he talked several
times about going in with Hennig in a
mining Investment.
Capt. Dovener showed the witness a
check on the Bank Of the Ohio Valley
for S., 900, drawn before the $4,000 was
stolen, and niSned by George Hennig.
He asked il Seybold did not intend to
steal 5000 10 meet that check, and Sey-
bold said: NJ -
"Not TINT T know Of" q
In answer to further inquiries, he
said he thought that check was drawn
after $1,000 bad been deposited in the
Bank of the Ohio Valley. He had had
a talk with Cashier Jepson, OF that bank,
and Mr.. Jepson told him he would nay
5000 OF the funds Of Hennig l. Seybold
on Hennig's personal check; and it was
in view Of this arrangement that this
check was drawn. His reason for fixing
it that way, and the reason he gave Hen.

Captain Dovener asked il seybold had
not met Mike Freismuth, barber, in
the alley near the Bank OF Wheeling,
about dusk on April 10, 1859, and re.
marked to him that his father had locked
him in; and II he did not have a bundle
on his arm. TO this the witness
answered no. l.
He said he told Mr.. Jefferson, Mt the
Bank OF the Ohio Valley, when he dc.
posted the $1,000 there, that ho and
Hennig had drawn the money in the
Louisiana State lottery. This was not
true; the witness'never drew that much
at any one time, but he had drawn
smaller Gums several times. He asked
tho Ohio Valley bank officials not to let
the Bank Of Wheeling people know any
thing about the money. Mr.. Jefferson
told him afterwards that Mr.. D. O. List
had been iuquiring as TO his having
deposits there.
