The Barker and Wallis strings

fred the second shot.
She said that she only shot to at
tract attention and with no intention
of killing anyone. Then she called
for Marshal Wallis, who came up
some time afterward,
Mrs. Hare testified that she could
see no one. and heard no groans or
gasps from the wounded man, and
did not know she had hurt any
one until sometime afterward when
she went to the window and saw the
dim outline of man below.
She gave her age as 50, and said
that she had been in Grand Junction
about seven years. She testified that
she had been away from her home
most of the time during the last six
months, and had never had any gen
tlemen callers at night, except those
who came to her to secure her servic-
es as nurse.
She stated that in the house with
her at the time were her sister, Mrs
Jones and May Lutsenheimer, young
woman. While naturally nervous on
the stand, Mrs. Hare told a straight
forword story and showed no con-
fusion whatever.
Other Witnesses Testify.
Eugene L. Nc Farland, who was
rooming in the next house, testified
to hearing the shots and that they
were not fired in quick succession.
He accompanied Marshal Wallis when
the officer arrived, and with the aid
of lamp, they together examined
the body and the house. They found
Coursney lying with his feet to the
door and his head in a southeasterly
direction.
DIR. Henderson's evidence concern
ed the nature of the wound, and he
stated that it was a necessarily fatal
wound. the bullet piercing the base
of the brain. He said there We're no
hemorrhages.
Mrs. Jones, sister of Mrs. Hare,
and residing in the same house, dis
closed nothing new by her testimony
which was substantially a corrobora-
tion of Mrs. Hare's. Mrs. Jones stat
ed that it seemed to her to be about
FIVE minutes between the shots.
The evidence given by Deputy
Sheriff Knowles referred chiefly to
fthe statement made by Mrs. Hare to
him on the morning of her arrest
which statements did not deviate
from her evidence at the inquest
Miss Mayer, who was in the adjoin-
