He bad neither father nor mother, brother nor sister, friend nor I protector, mongeither passengers or crew. Who wa? he? Where did he come from? Where goiug? Only ? nine yearn old. the poor little stranger, with*ragged clothes, but a beautiful , face, full of innocence and truth! Ofj course he was carried before the Hr?t! mate. "How came you to steal a passage ;, on board this ship?" asked the maten sharply. "My step-father put me in," answered the boy. "He said he could not afford to keep me or pay my pas- I sage to Halifax, where my aunt lives j' I want to go to my aunt " The mate did not believe the story.. ( He had often enough been deceived by !1 stowaways. Almost every ship bound to this couutry finds, one or two days! i out to sea, men or boys concealed j1 among the cargo, trying to get a pass-! age across the water without paying for i it. And this is often troublesome, as i well as expensive. The matesuspected |, some of tne sailors had a hand iu the j little boy*8 escape, aud he treated him pretty roughly." Day afier day he was 1 questioned about bis coming, and it was always the name story?nothiug less, nothing more. At last the mate got out of patieoce, as mate* will, aud seizing him by the collar, told bim, unless be confessed the truth, in teu minutes be would bang him on the } ardarra. A frightful treat indeed ! Poor child, with not a friend to stand by him ! Around were the passengers and sailors of the mid-day watch, aud befoie him the siern first officer, with his watch iu bis hand, counting ticktick-tick of the minutes as they swiftly went. There he stood, pale ami sorrowful, his bead erect, and tears in bis eyes ; but afraid??no, not a bit! Eight minutes were already gone. "Only two minutes more to live," cried the mate. "'Speak the truth and save your life, boy." ? "May I pray?" asked the child, look-' ing up into the hard man's face. The officer nodded hi* head, out said ; nothing. The brave boy tbeu knelt ; down on the deck, with hands clasped ! and eyes raised to beaven, repeated the ; Lord's praver, and then prayed the dear Lord Jesus to take him home 10 heaven. He could die; but lie?never!j All eyes were turned toward him, and j ??l>o Kmbo from atom ht>?rU. nwun uiuav ? --? The mate could hold out no longer.! He sprang ro the boy, took him in his | arms, kUsed hiui and told him he be-1 Iievt-d his story, every word of it. a nobler sight never took place on a ship'* deck than this?a poor, uu-j friended child willing to face death for! truth's ?ake. He could die; but lie?never ! Goil bless him! Yes, God stands by those) who stand by Him. And the rest of the voyage, you may well thiuk, he had : friends euouuh. Nobody owned him before ; everybody now was ready to ; do him a kin-lnes-. And *-*verybody who reads this will be strengthened to! do right, come what will, by the noble conduct of this dear chiid. To circulate an evil report about' your brother, which you do not know to be true, is only a less ofi'euxe than to give currency to a story which you | know to be false.

The Press and Banner was at the jail ycF.: terday. Tom Peterson and Walker Derrick i were in the same room. Neither o* the con j victs hesitated to talk, and we made the /ol, lowing notes. Tom l'eterson spoke first, and said : Wnner Ray is the only one wtio is connect-, t-d with me in 'lie killing of .Moseley. He, ii i h tie i>Mol Saturday night at I tie | iruln, about Jive mluutes before tbe train | c me. 1 told him i hat some one had koId Moseley i had been there, and wouid be there when the | trail: come. He said : "We wnu d get the liquor any-1 how." 'l'lie liquor that whs to come was for! ?<lm. I jukt owned one keg. He said he had ! one keg sent in my name, one in Andy Pal-1 mer's. I forgot the other names. After the train came Ainin-w Palmer and I j helped to take the jug? and kegs oft" the expre?.M train?thlneeii, or fourteen, or tllieen packages. After taking them off, I tu>ned over two or three bega to see It my name was on any of them. Alter finding my uume was not on any of the ke**, I stepped hack. Wnner Ray told me to take one keg anyhow. and go with It. 1 lold him 1 believed I would dot.! t"ke any. lie then ?aid, Look out for Moseley, to get i him if I could. 1 KlJ.I.ED MOSRLRY. He went down the railroad track with a keg j oi wliUkey. Wheu Andrew Palmer snatched i a jug out ot Ah. Mcintosh's hands 1 was ! standing on the platform. When Ab and Mr. Moseley run to the edge of the platlorm alter P ilmer and shot at him lour time" 1 slipped up between Ab and Wash Powell and shot between them and killed Moseley. Itwasdark. They didn't know who it was that shot. J went behind the car where Venner was. I told bim that. I had got him. Venner -aid: "You did." i said. "Yes." He said: ''Did 1 any one see you?" I said: "I don't think ' thev did.'' I gave him tbe pisiol back I picked up a keg of liquor and carried it to his house that nitsbt. Venner went, with nae to hi* house. I left him at his house and went up town and lay down in the restaurant; where I staid until da> light. WENT TO THE DKI'OT TO KII.L MOSELEY IN | AUGUST. "Is this all that passed between you and | Venner Hay about the ki ling of Moseley ?" No, sir; he offered me fifty dollars, when be | run the excursion to Atlanta In August to: kill Moseley while lie was gone. He said he ! wanted Moseley killed while he was gone, so thai nobody would think that be bad anything to do with it at all. I agreed to kill Moseley while he was gone. Venner gave me two pistols and told me to look out for bim bat night at tbe depot. I went to the depot > jvery night for a week, while Venner was {one on the excursion, and after be came Dack, I saw hlin one night. My heart failed ve, and I didn't bother bim. I didn't speak :o bim. k'ENNER FURNISHES A SHOTGUN TO KILI, | MOSELEY. After I quit going hunting for him at nlgbt, ind when 1 returned the pistols, he said : Look here; jou can't kill that man? Damn if I don't kill bitn myself. It you can't kill litn." I told hitn "I saw him; but I did not lave the heart to kill him; I ??n afraid 1 .vould miss bim with the pistol." He said he ahs going to Coronuca before long, and he ] bought tie could get a shot gun from a tellow )ut there. He said be knew I couldn't miss urn with a shot gun. He got the gun and :ave it to me. I kept it lor a whole week. [ saw Mosele.v several nights during that i ime. but I had no heart to kill him. After I , lldn't kill Moseley, Venuer said: "You are 10 account; (jod damn it; go and get the bud < io that lie could return it.

I didn't see t Im load the gun, nut I saw UHbert Mitchell iraw the slugs out oi the gun. THE REASON VENNER RAY WANTED TO KILL MOSELEY. r ' Why did Veuner Ray want to kill Mose- 5 ey ?" Hec?use Mo?eley had taken six kegs of 11 ]Uor from him at one time, and a little while i liter that, they scuflled overajugaud broie ton the railroad track. vennek's business to sell liquor. "Is Venner Ray in the habit of selling 11- r junr?" "Yes, all the time. That is bis business. I J was ins clerk." VENNER'S CLERKS. t "Did h* have any other clerks than yon ?" "Yes, sir; he b*d Lucius Bowls, Klssle I)od- ( ild, Alex Kinaid." 'How did they manage to sell liquor for lilm ?" Tb>y had It bottled up in the restaurant, [J anybody called f>?r whiskey they would r Utke It in their pockels and lake it out in the itree s. Sold it In the house by tliedrlnk ; by 1 ihe pint; by the quart or ny the gallon They I tj?ci a book, and wimellmes charged It. (The aatnes of customers withheld. He named jver flity ol them.) ( in business since 1s92. 'How long has Venner been in the liquor bust nc-?"' 'Ever ?lm-e 1SS)2. He has been continuously in the business ?lnce that time." "H -h ne ever been arrested lor selling liquor?" Yes, sir; he has been arrested two or three r limes. He has t>eeu convicted once. served < ihree mouths iu jail." tom has becn in jail before. "Have you ever been in jail before?" "Yes, sir; I was put In Jail three times for selling liquor. I ?as put In jail oue time , charged with shooting Abe Wife." TOM SHOT ABE WISE. "Did you shoot Abe Vl^e?" ] I shot at hi in tour or live times, and bit ( him three times. I was tried for the crime ind come clear. Venner Hay gave me two f pUto s, and a quart of whiskey. He gave me < the whlske.v so that I would ?et dnink . enough to kill blm. Venner carried me down to his house, and walled for Abe Wife to ( come. Abe come, and Venner gave him half t pint of liquor lu a glass. He drank It; stood . >iround awhiie, and then Venner gave him another big drink ; told me to go on up a lit- I ile above the depot, that he and Ai?e would be up there after awhile I went on, and they s..on followed. When opposite to me, Venner told Abe to stand there awhile, as he wanted to go into the depot. I fired at Abe as Roon as Venner left. Abe was then standing mDoui iweniy steps trom wnere aioseiey was killed." 1 a THE REASON THAT VENNER RAY WANTED TO KILL ABE WISE. "Why did Venner want you to kill Abe 1 W'iHH ?" ' "Because he thought Abe was acting the t part of a spy on his business In selling 11- , quor." CHIEF or POLICE RILEY WAS TO BE "BLOWN DOWN." "Did Venner ever ask you to kill anybody else?" ' Ye?, ?ir; Jess Riley. Chief of Police, had pulled Venner for two dollur* because he ur?ed <>n the street. Venner told me: ' "Sntne dark night as you be traveling, blow him down." "Did you understand "blow him down" to > mean for you to shoot him ?" "Yes, sir." THE LIQUOR BUSINESS. "Is anybody else in the liquor business down at Greenwood ?"' "Yes, nir; i>>Lh of them, white and black. | Nenrly as many blind tigers bb there are I stores." "D es the liquor business flourish at Greenwood ?" Yes, Rlr; it is easier to eet liquor at Greenwood than It is at Abheville. You can't get It at Abbeville as often as you want It. You could net whiskey at Greenwood whenever you want It."
