Wo unshod: right on to storm Hill, and went
into Aleinurter Campbell's, wbero Carroll had
told mo to ttko tho men. Campbell nnd his lit

for whit I ordered. Wo then went np to Hugh
Mcdchan's, at Summit Hill. I had never be

Tltero was only one man there, among a num
ber that I knew. Ho had aorven In tno same
brigade with mo In tho army. He was qtilto
lull of "bug Juice," Campbell and McQehan
had a short pitvatotalic. and then thrco revol

and with oil from n can ho oiled tli-ni. a Iter ho
had oiled them he handed ono to Doyle and ono
to Kelley, nnd Campbell handed one to mo and
asked me to shoot John 1. Jones, but I refused
both tho revolver and apparently I'nslciiillciint
request Doylo, Kelley and I remained In tho
saloon all night, McQchcn and Campbell both
returning home. Retoro tho 1 ttcr gontlemou

should go down tho next morning and point

The men, McOelien and Campbell, said that
John Jones had " blacklisted" that is til-charged
and reported o they coulon't again got work
nt nnv of tho company's mines some of tho men
that wore4 In that region. They allowed that
when aomo of these " blacklisted" men wont to
sco Mr.Parrlsh tho President at Wllkosbarre.to
ask to be reinstated, tbev received a letter to that
effect, came down and picsented tho same to
Jones nnd Mr. William b. Zehner, and tho only
rccogaltlon was that thoy should go away clear
cut. Campbell left mo to infer that Jonet was
mainly to-be murdered so as to got Zchncr to
run away. He said that " If Jolm P. Jonoa was
shot, Bill Zehner wnnlrt certainly rnn away."
