The defendant said the witness Ia

trying to obtain the cashiers money.
The only time defendant even became
unmanageable or over excited, testified

these names. he would declare these
two men to be his enemies, and to be
in conspiracy to Gust him from his
position as cashier of the Pensacola

out in the statement that he had turn
ed over all moneys belonging to his
brother.
There was some discussion between
witness and Judge BlOunt about GER
tain stock in an Illinois bank, said to
be owned by the defendant This stock,
said the witness, was already out as
collateral for moneys borrowed by his
brother.
Judge Blount then said: so far as
your conduct has been concerned
