Nancy N. Clark testified, this after
noon, that on the night of Sept. II.
when Treworsy had said he was 1T
home and in bed early. and the night
when Sarah Ware disappeared and is
believed to have been murdered, she
went to Treworgy's house after dark
to pay him some money and found no
one at home.
1t is believed from the character Of
the testimony introduced in rebuttal
so far that the State has in store still
more damaging testimony, and interest
in tomorrow possible developments

On the whole, Treworgy made
an excellent witness for himself. He
is peculiar looking and his gen
eral appearance does not tend to
help his case much, but as witness
he was cool and collected, answered
his counsers questions with apparent
frankness and without hesita ton. Only

thought he was about to tell all he
knew But Treworgy recovered him
self. and after time went on to tell
where he was, saying with evident en-

Treworgy said he was 46 years old,
and after a long story led up to 1898
He had known Sarah Ware 10 years.
When his wife died Treworgy said she
came to work FOR him and take care
of the children. The latter became
much attached to her and after she
left went frequently to see her. Some
times he went with them and often
went alone.

named Patterson was working there
with him. and about 4.3O in the AFTER
