On Christmas eve. lac AYERS thai Mrs.
Johnson rlfied has pantaloons Of $50
and then got very much agitstea over
= rap al the door. tbs sudden APP
preach of the landlord for his rent
caused Parish To skip IN haste out Of

found that his money was gone.
Now the theory Of the prosecution -
that all this wlckecncss besSeeR the
soldier and Mrs, johnson wss connlyed
at by tha husband for the purpose of
robbng Parish in just the way he
seems 20 have been robbed. Indeed,
there is cis!med 10 be much proof
that Johnson actually got a
part of the swag. Ii WAS shown that
lust before Parish went 10 the house,
johnson had no money, and Just after
Parisn's fight, johnson bought SUIT
of clothes al the Tower. The new

sented the people, and samusi Clay

the superior court for the determine
ton of this point.
When the case Of Cuthbert ct al. WAS
