the trial began.
ATcKesson then questioned the wit

Indiana where the charge was libel
Admitting that he had signed the
record and presided during the trial
he could not remember that the rec

jury box, and that they were select

the jury commissioners selected
them in the treasurers office and put
them in, in accordance with the di-
rections of this court"
He did not remember why he had
said that they were drawn from the
tax duplicate when he had previous

the commissioners draw names.

McKesson asked him what prompted
his action.
An elaborate card index filing sys-

In this filing system the Judge said
he kept record of all the jurors

he could have it for ready reference.
The record contained 1851 names he
said.
