 At this juncture Paris paused as though l his statement was complete but upon be- ing queried replied tl.t he did not know how long Murray had been here and that
 he must undoubtedly have been a bad man to commit such crime as that which he is charged.
 When asked where he went after the shooting and his alighting from the train. 1 he resumed his statement as follows: q was suffering intensely and crawled to a nearby colored woman's house. I remain ed there on the galley until later in the morning when the officers got me and brought me to jail. I don't know their names l do positively deny any connec- tion with the crime
 As he concluded his final denial, Dr. Gully, the county physician. came into the Inner corridor and told the negro that he wanted to dress his wound In re- sponse to the doctor, Paris stated that his pain was intense. although at that time he did not feel as bad as he had felt. III dpoul Il ndI HOlf GdrlS crippled foot had been dressed. Dr. Turner, MT. Basss physician, agreed to allow the patient to go to the jail and identify the prisoner if he could. Accompanied by Dr. Turner and another gentleman MT. Bass proceeded to the prisoners couch and there identified him at the man who did the shooting. and in substantiation of al nfp h rafa tr t,to to Dr. Turner this morning when being attended.
 MT. Bass Statement,
 After identifying the negro, Postal Clerk Bass made a statement regarding the trouble, as far as he remembered. He said
 The train had just pulled out from Meridian and after we had slowed up at crossing I prepared to Work my pa- pers. We hadn't got far when I heard a shot and looked up quickly and saw MT. Stockton fall. A big negro was advance ing toward me with a pistol and as couldn't get out to my rear I thought I would run toward the negro and possi- bly, catch his arm As l ran to meet him he fired and hit my shoulder and I fell. He shot me again as I fell and I became unconscious. I was not uncon- scious more than few seconds, and when I recovered I raised up and saw the negro hanging outside the car ready to jump off as 1t seemed. I got up and reached for the bell cord but the train did not stop. so crawled over to the emergency valve and turned 1t. bringing the train to a stop. While was doing this the negro jumped off.
