was the first evening l ever saw Harry

Witness then testified that he had
assisted Hayward in cutting the ''T''

the witness and recognized as the one
in question. His story in regard to
Harrys connection with it was clear
and unequivocal. Harry came
down." said he, land he asked BliXt if

/ did not know what kind of job it
was. Blixt said yes, and he turned
around and he seen the pieces that
lay there, both of them together on
the floor, both pieces of rail; and he
said when he saw them: ooh, the
devil 1 did not want it cut; [ only
wanted it bended,' and BliXt kind of
laughed at him, and then said some
more, a few words-I don't recollect
what it was, but he was kind of scold-
ing Blixt and cursing him, and Blixt
said, 81 will get another one, [ will
get another one twice to him; and
he took them both up in his hands

both of them in his left hand, and
