the floor | see a pistol. | look ut 1t and

crowd crying. I look out the door.
There | see him"
IL seemed to me I couldn't bear to
hear any more. and | stopped my airs
until I say the lawyer for the prosecu-
ton sit down. But as soon as he was
down the lawyer for the defense was on
his feet and had begun asking n lot of
questions that seemed to M very fool
ish anI very little concerned with
Jobrny Montgomery. Then. without
seeming TO have made any point at all.
Mr.. Jackson sat down. The Mexican
came down from the witness stand.
the judge left his place and went out
through Il door at the back and a man
who had been lowering oil the out
skirts of the lawyers table hurried to
Mr.. Dingley and whispered something
to him. Instead of coming over to
speak with us, as l had expected, Mr..
Dingley went hastily out of the room.

There vas a murmur of talk all
through the room, but above it | heard
two men behind me greeting each
other.
One said: well, what's the game?

"A little of both, | guess" the other
answered. "She's been pretty good to
