John Sharp's Case.

stThe state further insists that the de- fendant, John D. Sharp, was nearby, if necessary, to participate in any way that
 might be necessary in the killing, or was
 there for the purpose of making himself a witness in behalf of said defendants, D. B. Cooper and Robin Cooper.
 Now, gentlemen, if you believe this
 insistence to be true and fully warranted
 by the facts, and are satisfied of the
 same beyond a reasonable doubt it would
 be your duty to convict all the defend
 ants of the crime and felony of murder

 is, that he was going to kill him, or one
 or the other of them must die, or the town would not be big enough to hold
 them both, and that he had written a note for the purpose of sending to E. W. Carmack, stating in substance what had already been sent, d message by Mr. Craig to the deceased and that he did not send the note at the solicitation of friends, but on seeing Senator Carmack his intention of taking hs Carmack's.

Syy% HE way ii began Hannah was
HI cross that day. For one thing,
e She had a big Thanksgiving
baking to do in an old fashioned
house where pies and cakes were made
by lie quantity.
Then, while she was out of the kitch-
en- minute, Margery in frolic with
pusS had upset the churn with it's load
OF creQm all over the snow white floor.
That made plenty of extra work. but
the crowning disaster was to find
when she went to the pantry for the
beans she intended to bake that a bot
tie of brandy that she had kept last
summer to battle her ankle, which she
had spralned in falling down the cell
lar stairs, had been upset.
1t stood far out of the way on the
top shelf. but unfortunately the dish
of beans was directly under II, and the
brandy had dripped over them, soak
ing them SO thoroughly that it was not
possible 70 use them.
But the worst was yet to come. On
finding the beans ruined she simply
emptied them into the pail which stood
at the kitchen door nnd, wasting her
hands, set to work to knead her big
pan of puffy bread dough.
Now, the kitchen door opened into a
