house. Left track was out in front
of right. Right turned and tracks
seemed to be running. Tracks went
to shop and returned towards house

- up on right side of house and on end

r track from Cooks to Colemans house,
i Good crowd had assembled by this
time. I went then to shop looked it
over and around. Found an anvil
where there had been pieces of lead

i end of anvil. Found two pieces of
> lead beside the anvil (pieces prod,
uced in court.) I found the wadding

made a dent in track. I looked at
Harry's shoes. The track showed
heel run in. I arrested Harry.

State here rested its case.
Testimony for Defense.
Mr. Kendrick, the first witness put
up by defense, sworn, testified: I told
Mr. Robbins that was not a test.
Robbins said: "You will have to put
up another $100 or I'll bet $100."
Robbins said he had tested the case.
I said, "You have not tested it at all."
Am related to Harry. Harry pave
me a note for $200. I stated that
1 had got $200 off on lawyer's fees,
and I told Harry that I had saved
him $200.
Examined by defense: I stated
that I got $200 saved in lawyer's
fees. At their suggestion the note of
$200 was ?iven. Harry has steadfastly
maintained his innocence; at no
time has he confessed to me.
Luther Davis, being sworn, testified:

Jonesville. Not relate to Harry
Coleman. Not interested, personal in
him whatsoever. I said in presence
of Robbins, as to dogs, "that was no
test." He said, he would bet $100
1 that the dogs would run no other
, trail. This after the dogs saw Harry
. and treed him. Never saw blood Mujuia~tMul.4>efore.

track. Harry was out of sight
