started for a doctor. and when he got
back White was dead. During the trouble
White had no weapon. White did strike
Carr and once knocked him down. White
told Murphy, who was with Carr. to take
him away. No one else gave any blows
save White and Carr.
There were 10 in the barroom during
the row. The whole controversy did not
take over 10 minutes. Carr was dragged
away from White by witness.
To Mr.. Stone witness said that Carr
was invited to drink by one Murphy. Un-
White things were quiet in the saloon.
Witness heard no conversation between
the men. Witness could not swear 20
many marks and bruises that Mr.. Stone
said were on Mr.. Carr.
Witness saw no one kick Carr and did
not know anything about Whites pugi-
nstic ability. No one offered Carr any as
sistance. Witness did not think Carr was
badly hurt and no one complied with
Carr's request for doctor.

length as to what took place In the bar
