They purchased a single ticket to Waver-
ly. and this ticket, the nurse says. she saw
handed to the negro by one of the white
men as they passed out of the depot. al
though the white men and the negro had
previously manifested no sign of recogni-
tion. The negro took the same train that
she did and sine saw him alight at Waverly.
This places the negro in Waverly at S:i3
