and Harrison and Marshall proposed to
match for them. They invited Sears, the

Harrison planned to pretend to Sears that
they should so conduct themselves in the
game as to win and obtain large sums of
money from Marshall. 1t was agreed
between Marshall and Harrison that
Marshall should apparently lose to Har-
rison and Sears. and should refuse to
pay until the latter should show to Mar
shall certain large sums of money, where
upon Marshall would promise to pay over
to his pal and Sears an amount equal to
the sum produced.
Sears did not have enough money with
him, but he told Harrison that he had
about $500 in bank in Frederick. Har-
rison persuaded him to get it and make
money hand over fist. They went up to
Frederick together, but Sears had to go
