in the window saw Smith push his wife
against the couch three times and heard
her say she intended to leave. He went
into the house and things Gained down.
Mr.. and Mrs +. y. Eddy and Mrs.
Emma Lyman of Stratton testified to
talking to Mrs. Smith one time when
she and her husband were not living to-
gether about going back to live with
Smith, which she did DR.. A. w.
| Thomas told of treating smith for rheu-
matism. b. L. Perry of West Wardsboro
said Smith peacable and INDUS
trous. Henry Payne testified that
Smith had rheumatism, also that Mum
dell told him on one occasion that he
had a grudge against Smith and was 60
ing to smash him" Edward Newell,
who lives half a mile from the Smith
said Smith came to his house after the
shooting and told what had happened
The story was the same as told by other
witnesses. E. r. Willard, station agent
at Williamsville, said he saw Smith at
the station April 26. that Smith was
lame and complained of rheumatism.
The point which the defense sought to
establish in regard to the rheumatism
was that Smiths condition was such that
he was unable to cope with a strong
man like Mundell without resorting to
an effective method of self defense.
Henry Waite of the West Wardsboro ho-
tel knew Smith to have rheumatism and
that Mundell was a strong man. Leon
Snltn OF Marlboro, n. H., brother of
the respondent, told of the latter's early
life. DR.. O. V. Heffion of Wardsboro
testified that he treated Smith for rheu-
matism and that Mundell was a strong
man.
Caspar NJ. Smith, the respondent. took
the stand in his own behalf a II 80 and
was the last witness for the defense, re-
naming on the stand until the end of
the day. lie gave his age as &c years
and told his whole life story, saying
that his home life was pleasant while in
New Hampshire and until he came to
West Wardsboro. He said he had rheu-
matism nearly all the time. He told the
story of his wife running away with
Leno and finally the story of the shoot
ing of Mundell. His account of the first
part of that affair was substantially as
| told by other witnesses. After climbing
through the window he said, he saw
Mundell pick up stick of wood and
start for MIN. He looked for something
with which to defend himself, backed in
to the bedroom with Mundell following
and reached to a cupboard shelf and
took down his revolver. He said Mum
dell struck al him with the wood and
that he told Mundel to keep back or
he would shoot. Mundell then strck him
on the head. He fired two shots, but
neither took effect. Then Mundell drop
ped the stick and grabbed him around
the body. Smith then fired third time,
he said, and the bullet lodged in Mum
dells head. Then he went to Ed New
ellis and told Mr.. Newell he had "sent
old Clark to kingdom come" The rest
| of his testimony was in substance what
other witnesses had told.
At this point the defense rested and
/ the state announced that it had no evil
! dence to put in in rebuttal.

knowledge is Light To change it into
Power.
God gives the higher gift of faith di-
vine.
Much more is needed in a trying hour
Than digging into Information's mine.
Our Godward side of soul why disregard.
Where thoughts of other worlds come
pouring in?
Faith opes a door to prouder knowledge
barred
The truer sight is that which lies with
in.
The spirits depths no plummet line may
sound
Our knowing self is but part set
free,
OF wavelets coursing near the spirits
bound
Like spoondrft on the surface of the
sea.
Faith is a lamp to light what else were
dark;
The motive power of life is Charity.
To set our souls Attire God sends this
spark
We live in time, but for eternity.
Where Faith and knowledge, welded
work as one,
The noblest manhood raises up 1t:
head
To those who would divorce them, ther,
Is none
But this worlds passing wisdom, stones
for bread.
