 I heard a noise and went to his room. He was on the bed with his clothes on. I asked him to raise the window but he said if he did that the bugs would get him. He motioned toward the ceiling when he mentioned them. He never said anything to me about killing me. One time he told me he thought he would go and sleep in a graveyard. as it was more quiet there than in his room. In my opin- ion he has to a certain extent been insane all the time and wholly insane at times. saw him Monday at noon, the day of the killing.
 I was with him from then until about an hour and half before the killing. He was in a very nervous state of mind, but was not as drunk as I had sometimes seen him. He did not appear to know what he was talking about. In my opin- ion he was insane on that day. I did not see any bugs in the room where Parrish stayed He seemed to imagine that bugs were in the air and he would point to the ceiling when talking about them. The Saturday before the killing I saw Parrish take some drinks. He probably took twenty drinks of whiskey and absinthe. s Cross examination: I have seen few drunken men lie down with their clothes on. If he is very drunk a man is doing nothing unusual If he lies down with his clothes on. l have had some observations

 I know Parrish. He drank heavily. One day I walked in his office to see him about a lawyer. He was apparently so- Der at the time. I talked on general sub subject l wanted to talk to him about he jumped up and paced up and down the room, using all sorts of words l think he is a man of unsound mind, from conversations with him and observations of his actions.

I did not see 1t. l heard it occurred in the office of the bankrupt court. He talked to me about Ward He said Ward hao called him a name and he had jumped up and grabbed an ink bottle. He said that he remarked: If you see a funeral pro- cession on, you can put 1t down Ward will be the main feature and the princi- pal one in line" He said he whipped out a knife. I then told him I was go- ing. He had a knife-I suppose the same one That was about month before the killing. He told me he was going to send Ward where he couldn't talk about peo- pie on this earth.
