Tho most convincing argument of

Campbell had on him and which he

Tho principal conflict was to be
found in the statement by James Con-

James A Dykes, a witness who had

In their testimony Is the opinion OF

Moore had told n friend about half
an hour before he was shot. They

Attorneys Ryan and Bachelor take
this to mean that Campbell. Moore
and Walker were expecting to be held
up. while Attorney Foster takes It to
mean that Moore was expecting to be
