Archibald and Henry were both pres

Baker and your humble servant de-
Tended. A great many witnesses were
introduced and examined, but / shall
only mention those whose testimony
seemed most important. The first OF
these was Capt. Ransdell. He swore
that, when William and Henry left
Springfield for home on Tuesday be-
fore mentioned, they did not take the
direct route-which. you know. leads
by the butcher shop; but that they fol-
lowed the street north until they got
opposite, or nearly opposite, Mays
house, after which he could not see
them from where he stood; and II was
afterwards proved, that, in about an
hour after they started. they came
into the street by the butchers shop
from towards the brick-yard. DR.. Mer-
ryman and others swore to what Is
stated about the scufiie-ground. drag
trail. whiskers and carriage tracks.
Henry was then introduced by the
prosecution. He swore that. when they
started for home, they went out north.
as Ransdell stated, and turned down
west by the brick.yard into the woods.
and there met Archibald; that they
proceeded a small distance further.

they moved on with the carriage in
the direction Of Hlckox's mill. and he
loitered about for something like an

carriage, but without Arch, and said
they had put him IN a safe place: that
they went somehow. he did not know
exactly how. into the road close to the
brewery. and proceeded on to clary's
Grove. He also stated that some
time during the day William told him
that he and Arch. had killed Fisher
the evening before; that the way they
did II was by him (William) knocking
him down with a club. and Archibald
then choking him TO death.
An old man from Warren. called Or.

wheat as high as IS bushels to the

wheat went 81 bushels TO the acre,
and we had 900 acres in crop. We
have broken this year about 100 acres

have about LILO acres in crop. For
one carload OF wheat which we have

A scene Of midnigh; marauding and

actors comprised a marauder OF IN
known personality and a horse and
wagon, on one side and John A. sharp

Ross Porter ON the other side.
The time was near the witching hour
when churchyards yawn and graves
give up their dead" A neighborrood
meeting was being held at the residence
OF Mr.. Sharp. who lives at Twelfth
South and Redwood road, and at its
conclusion those In attendance were on
their way homeward. one OF these
neighbors thought he heard suspicious
sounds emanating from a pile OF lum-
Der nearby, said lumber consisting Of
tho remains OF an old bridge which had
floated down the river at the time of
high water and had lodged IN against
the big bridge which had been con-
demned, and was pulled out OF the
water by Mr. Sharp and which, up tn
that moment reposed safely on the
bank. Deserving a moving object near

the owner OF the promises OF the situa-

thief was making away with his faith

The elder Sharp proved fleet Of foot
enough to overtalxe the retreating driv-

replace his lumber. This the driver
finally consented TO do and having
done so. made as to move off with his
empty wagon.

To this the elder Sharp demurred.
saying he thought the fellow had bet

he expected 10 arrive very presently

became obstreperous and pulled a gun.
which he Orandished under the elder
Sharp's nose, with the admonition that

would no longer delay the order OK
