was at the trial; II. w. Smith was Lewis
lawyer; Mr.. Allison was there; | sup
posed Lewis was being tried for robbing
me; Lewis SWOre he never saw me till the
day he was arrested; l saw it in the pa
pers that he had been fined $50 and costs
for stealing my money; Milestone was a
witness up there and he swore against
me; l went back to the jail; Metcalf told
me was under $3.50 bonds and would
have to stay in till the trial came up in
the higher court; stayed there during De-
cember and January: L was sick; my
head hurt me: / went to see DIR. Adams
about my head; it hurt me in the fore
head, in the right eye; went TO Droz-
dowitz's and bought pistol because
the policeman told me that if l
went about town Lewis and his
partners would kill me; read the news
papers; L couldn t read much though, be-
cause was always thinking of those fell
lows and getting my money back; at the
city Jail some men told me that they had
lost money through Lewis, but they had
| got it back; that made me mad aud I
didn't want TO stay there any more; all
thought about was Lewis and losing my
money; / remember giving Marchant 50
/ TO kill me; wanted to die; had an idea
a good many times to commit suicide; I
tried to keep from killing myself; was
raised a Catholic.''
After answering a few more questions,
relating to what his thoughts We're when
contemplating suicide, Judge Rhodes
turned the defendant over to the prose
cution.
This action on the part of the defense
created a profound sensation, as it had
been expected they would enter into the
details of the killing, but when in his ex-
animation Judge Rhodes brought the de-
fendantto that point on Saturday where
the lattel's mind was a blank, he was
satisfied. Borel said he did not know
where he slept the night before the kill
ing and he could not remember anything
after that evening.
Mr.. Alison took the witness in hand at
once and again reviewed the iatter's early
life, following him in all his Wanderings
from the time he left his native country
to the day he fell into the hands of the
bunco steerers. There he left him and
will resume the examination tomorrow.
Court then adjourned.
