Especial to the Rennehec Journal
WrscAsskT, June 3.-Dr. Pesslee, the
county physician. vss sumn oned to the
Jail last Saturday to attend Wright,
the man Who did the shooting at
Washington . few days since. Your
,pondent accompanied the doctor
and vas present during the examination.
Wright Is man apparently about 80 yeafs
old and does not look to be the desperate
character that some accounts have given
him. He seems more like q man broken
down by trouble ard disesse. The moot
casual observer cannot fall 70 note that bic

The man is suffering from nervous dys-
pepsia and the disease has 90 veakened his
nerves that he has no control over them.
His mind 10 evidently affected in common
with the res. Of his system.
He attempted 70 give his visitors IN ac-
count Of the shooting and his troubles that
had led to it, but the narrative was 30 brok-
en- and incoherant that II vas impossible to

that his first wife got q divorce from him

how man in such condition mentally and

desperate. He brooded over his troubles
and became convinced that . part Of his
creditors and the lawyers were conspifing
to get all that came to him. He says he
does rot remember much about the shoot
ing but knows that he did it and with teats
rolling down his cheeks declared that he
would rather die himself than take the life
of another.
Wright served in the army and carries
the mark Of rebel bullet which passed
through his arm. His pension was granted
on account of malarial poison contracted
during his service in the army. He deeply
regrets his rash act and does not seem to
