Loud laughter vas indulged in by
everybody in the Courtroom Yesterday
when Mrs. Herb s1anson in cross ex-
animation stated to Attorney Bangs
that Anderson was nervou as he stood
by his woven wire fence between the
Funk and Anderson houses. The
laughter was caused, and the accused
bank clerk Joined in the laughing as
we'll, when Mrs. Hanson said she was
no actress and could not demonstrate
to the veteran attorney how Anderson
moved about. She did say, however,
that Anderson moved about as Bangs
did in the courtroom when he became
nervous. She thought Mr.. Bangs
could give the demonstration better
than she could.
In direct examination Mrs. Hanson
said she arrived at the Funk house

and that she saw Walfred Anderson
as she ran over there. She went into
Funk's house Immediately, went into
the bedroom, viewed the remains CT
Mr.. Funk and saw that he vas dead.
Mr.. Madden who was in the room at
the time. pointed out to her the bullet
hole in Funk's body. After taking
another look she went out into the
yard where Mrs. Madden had taken
Mrs. Funk and helped the other ladies
comfort her. Then she went over to
the fence and had a conversation with
Walfred Anderson. Her husband and
Captain Leach Were standing near her
at the time, though Anderson was
) about twelve feet from her and the
fence was between them. Anderson
was looking down as she said to him
"WaIfred, Mr.. Funk Is shot"
"Shot? Is he dead?"
Yes, he is dead"
