COURT PROCEEDINGS
The, court was opened at quarter•past ten o'olook
this morning.
After some delay the names or the eleven Jurors
already sworn wore oalled. All ansvrered ,to the
roll.
• The Judge. After , the jurors were dismissed,
yesterday, one of the eleven came up to the bench
and asked if he could say a word , to me. I told
hid "No; not about this ease," Rowever, he
went on to say: +.l 'answered the "question put to
me, but since I have been sworn .and been in the
jury , ,box, I have been regeoting on this thing, and
lam not quite satisfied with, myself." On whiah
I said: "I 'sonnet relieve yon," turning round,
and he went off.' I think it right to mention this
publioly, in ease the conned. may think proper to
move about It. So little impression did the man's
appearance

Mr. Moore; the juror alluded to, standing up,
said: I was impressed with the responsibility
that rested on me, and' felt a kind of shrinking
from the duty.
Judge I hope you were.
- Juror. It made me feel unpleasant, but this
morning I can say to the court that I feel perfect.

The' Distriot Attorney, Mr. Onld, opened the

and efleotive statement of the circumstances of the
murder, amid -the breathless attention of tho
judge, jurors, and audience.. (See next page.]
The ,Ttidge said It was usual here to have open

for the defence would prefer to defer their open.

Some delay occurred, which the District Attor
ney explained by saying that he was waiting for a
witness whom ho wished to examine first, and who
wasnot in chart: He had sent for him. This witness
was:James H, Reed.i He soon afterwards came
Into court, and was sworn and took the stand.
District Attorney. Were you present at the time
Of the death of Mr. Rey?
A. I was near by.
District Attorney. Be good enough to state all
the circumstances connected with the killing that
you saw.
A. I was passing, on the Sabbath of the '27th
of February, up the street known as part of Penn
sylvania avenue, running by the President's
house, and I bad got nearly dppoislte the street
known as, Madison Place ; , I was walking along
leisurelyOng 'westward, and heard a load talk
ing, as I imagined ; I looked - tip, and - my eye fell
on two gentlemen on the corner Of the pavement
of Dr. Gunnell's, old residence; one was stand
ing rather westward, the other eastward; they
mimed to be from four to six feet apart; they
remained so for a• moment or two; as soon as
I saw the men good, I saw the arm of the one
who was westward begin to rise; directly I saw
there was something in It, apparently a pistol; the
arm was gradually • steadying ; my impression it
the moment was that these gentlemen had cause
out of the house where Dr. Maynard resided.
Mr. Graham objeoted to the witness stating his
impressions or presumptions. •-
Witness, Ile raised his pistol gradually, and in
the course or five or ten seconds I saw himtake
deliberate aim, aiming,: apparently, at' the corner
of the house, bat in an Instant after ward saw that
It was at the man eastward of him ' ; the aim was
deliberate; the man eastward was making nu
effort to go out of the direction of the pistol ; in
two or three seconds the pistbi was fired ; the man
who 'tired the - pistol moved a little westward,
slowly; the other advanced toward him; the one
eastward followed up rapidly, but did not gain
upon him till they reached the place where the
first firing took place. ,
Q. Do I understand you to say that they went
to the middle of Madison Place
A. They went westward ant a little on - the
southwest line; when they roaohed about eigh
teen or twenty feet from where the first fire took
place, the man who was shot at retreated, and
went somewhat northwardly and eastwardly by
Madison Plaoe. The other followed him up, though
not so closely, perhaps; the gentleman who was
shot at ran up and got behind a , trbe, shouting:
Murder! don't shoot me!" it was the first ttee
on the east side of Madison Place; be apparently
wanted to Screen himself from - the man who had
the pistol ; the latter, came up to about five , feet
of him ; there he attempted to shoot, but -the
pistol snapped at that fire or attempt to fire;
he -then' retreated bank is little, the man who
was photat following him up, and they went into
the middle of Madison Place • that was after the
first snapping and the second attempt to shoot;
when they reached the middle of the street they
were about ten feet apart; there a second firing
took plass ; must before that I saw the man who
was shot attempt tothrow something, which appm
rently struck the other ; the throwing and second.
firing were simultaneous ; the article went slowly,
and fell at the feet of the man who fired thepis
tol; I do not know what it was ; as Soon as the
plated was fired, the man got himself up this way,
hdezeribleg him with both, ,hands pressed against
is stomach,] and said something like "kill
me;" he ran over to the pavement; cannot say
whether he touohed the fence or not; when he
came round the man who fired the pistol came up
in front of the man who was down ' • he turned up
a little on his right elbow, and I heard him ex-
Claim, once or twit)°, " Don't shoot mo " don't
shoot me!" what other words he mild I do not
know ; the pistol was fired three times; the man
who held the pistol•was about two and a half feet
from the body when the third shot was fired ; ho
then attempted to shoot again •, the pistol snapped ;
he snapped the pistol a aeoond time. s s
Q. That makes six times that the man attempted
to Shoot? ,
A. There 'were six attempts to shoot; witness
was standing 9n the south pavement of Pennsyl
vania avenue, and near the south line of Dr. Gun
' nell'e residence; he thought it foolish in him to rush
in and interfere, lest he might be shot; hence ha
_did not interfere ; went over as soon as shooting
was 0901'.
'Q: Did yousee the lamp-post at the corner known
as Dr. Maynard's corner?
A. Yea, sir; I know its position; the man
who fired was distant_ about four feet north of
it, -the other party some four or six feet northeatt •
of him; the man shot was farther north; they
were apart four to six:feet at the first shot; the
man shot at did normove more than a foot or two
from that; he - seemed to be twisting himself to
gat out of the !Muth of the pistol; the person who
Bred the shot went to the-eastward, and slightly
southward, about eighteen or twenty feet, and was
followed up by, the person who was fired at; they
were not nearer than three or four feet to each
other; the Min shot at stopped first; the other
followed him up ; the person fired at came round
behind the,first tree ; the person firing Snapped
the pistol at-him while behind the tree; in a se:
oond or two the person fired at came out 'progres
sively. the other person retreated' up_ the street,
and reached near the middle • the man shot at
followed him up ; the space ' between them in
creased till the attempt to throw and the second
shot took place; instantly the witness' - aye riveted'
on the man shot; he drew himself up, and ex
claimed, "You've killed me," and retired east
ward to this pavement.
Q Whet was their relative positions when 80010•
thing was thrown?' .
s A. They were ten feet apart;. theinan shot. was
to the eastward; the beau holding the pistol to the
TWo egYis•
-westward ; • the man - shot- bade ;air the 4asterrr
pavement; ,he was-followed by.the, other

Mr. Sickles, or his book? '
A. With his back; he went facie forenioat tO the
"pavement - , • •
Q. Did you bear, any exolarnation from Mr. gay
at the time the third shot was fired'? •
A. 1 heard - biro say twice,' "Don't' shoot ma,
don't shoot me ;"., at the second exolamation the
third shot. was tired.
' Q. What interval' elapsed betwee n, the firing of
the shot and the first snapping eiterirards? •
- .At I Judge It was near ten seconds.. • .
Q,: Row eodr, did , the-second snapping of the
pistol fellow.?'
A. Sooner than the first one did after the , shot
-about three or'four seoontis.
Q: Did yon maintain your position from the be.
ginning to the, end of the 000urrenoia?
, I did, not move three feet from' the Ilium
where I first stood ;..I was on the south side

idea who spoke: , _ •
Q. Was the , hand that held the pistol out of
your eight at any, time during the whqle of the
affair?
A. Ijudge it was; on turning around the hand
neoesearily was out of my eight; it was too dis•
taut to see :what kind of a pistol it , was ; did
not change my position at any time during the
affair.
'Q. Did the person flied on advance toward
Mr. Sickles, and succeed in touching Me person?
A. Not in my eight ; I do not believe he would
have done so without my observing it ; I feel.oer
tain of that. •

perhaps a Little north ;' Mr. Sickles was then eight
or twelve feet west of him; he and Mr. Hey
wore facing each other.
Q, Was there any shot fired while they were not
facing cook other?
A. No, air, they were facing etoh other on each
mouton ; at first they were not exactly opposite,
but they saw each' other; the artiele - thrown , by
Mr. Hey.tonolted the person of Mr. Sickles ; struck
"either his arm or body; the:throw 7 sod the shot
were simultaneous; they were eight or ten feet
apart ; could - not discern what the artiole wee;

less, and turned away; amino more of the killing,
witness was walking.westward *hen his-atten

ley's hones is between Maynard's house and
Rigge' Back; the gentlemen appeared 'gaudily
north and south ; the one who fired was standing
southward ; - couldieee a space between . theta ; raw
the one-who stood north retreat; that was the one
who was fired at; the distanoe between the per-
ties at the time of firing,svas about six feet; could
partly see the man who was fired at; could see
his trent ; could entirely see the man who fired ;
he was three or four feet north of the lamp-post ;
witness' was walking westward.
Q What happened immediately after the first
firing between these parties?
A. The gentleman whom I partly saw disap
peared from my sight completely; the gentleman
who fired also disappeared from my sight, as if
following the other; I was running at-the time,
end my attention was-not altogether directed to
the men.
Q. When you got to the corner, what did you
see?
A: I saw one man lying on the pavement, and
the other attending by him with a pistol in his
hand, which he presented and snapped at the man
-lying down.
Q. Did you go up near to them?
A. I stood at the oorner.
Q. Did you recognise either of the parties?
A. I recognised the man who had the pistol.
Q. Who wee he? -
A. Daniel B. Siokles, the prisoner at the bar; I
knew him only by eight.
Q. Whom olio did you see there?
4. I saw Mr. Batterworth, and Mr. Martin, aid
Mr. tipshur.'
Q. Where were they?
A. I first notioed Mr. Butterworth as I was op
proaphing the corner ,• he appeared to have just
coma down Madison ]Slice ; he stopped at the cor
ner and looked up Madison Place ; after, -- the
last shot was fired I saw him approach the railing
and rest upon it. •
Q. Where - wore the other parties? -
A. I noticed Mr. Upehur and Mr. Martin imme
diately after the pistol was,snapped, leaning over
the body, as if to Irak it up.
Q. Did yen see any other act of firing except the
first?
Mr. Brady thought that after a witness had
given a full narrative, it was hardly worth while
to go over the details again.
The Judge thought that counsel had a right to
milt further lineations. •
The question was repeated.
A. I mentioned that I saw two firings.
Cross-examined, by Mr. Brady.—Q. About how_
far were you from the corner of Madison Place
when you heard that first, shot?
A. In the neighborhood of fifty yards; between
forty and fifty yards; I ran to the corner; could
not form any true estimate of the time it took me
to get there ; could not toll what time elapsed be
tween the first and second reports, nor between
starting for Madison Place and the end of the
transaction; should say it was two or three mi
nutes; heard three reports of a pistol;, they were
not in rapid tmdoesalon ; there was about an equal
interval of time between the first and second and
the second and third reports.
Q. Did you Ilene anything said by either party
daring that affair?
A. t heard exclamations, but could not distin-.
gribih them ; they proceeded from the party who
retreated.,
Q. Did you see any person, while Mr Key was
lying there, , come up and speak to Mr. Sickles? '
A. No, sir.
Q. Dld you see any article lying on the pave
ment? '
A. I saw a pistol; a single-barrelled one,
stocked to the end of the' muzzle ; -think it was
what is called a t' Derringer" -. pistol ; it was
lying on the corner of the payement, about a yard
from the orossing, and about the same position
that the party who fired stood when the first 'shot
was fired ; it was about ten or fifteen feet from
where Mr. Key was lying the pistol was on the
east side of the -pavement; that - was the last I
saw of it; Saw no other artiole lying there; did
not notice - how Mr. Key was dressed till I saw him
I in the Club Rome; could not state whether or not
he had on an overcoat ; he retreated with his face
towards Mr. Siokles-
Edward Delnfield, sworn —I heard the report cf
a pistol, and saw two gentlemon nOttr the orossink;

Butterworth was near; the ; witness was
very much sheathed ; went toward them, bat first
stopped at the Otago's:re to state what was taking
Plate ; eatne out 'and proceeded to the spot ; Key'
lay extended on the pavement; Mr. Moltke Read
with his beck toward Olivetti's& and with a Ode',
pointed toward - Mr-Key • _he explrded cap ; the
witness peered between Mi.,eiekletend Mr. Key;
wept round and took bold of Key ; looked up in
quiringly toward Mr: Sickles and heard him make
the remark, "Re has violated my bed."
The District Attorney. Never mind about that.
•fdr:Srady insisted it was part of the narrative,
and the witness should be allowed-to srotieed. •
The Judge. It is proper for the witness to gate
everything thatocourred, and he is bound to relate
all be sawand heard. -
The District Attorney Said he had not asked the
witness to state what he had heard; but only what
he had seen. It was competent far the defends to
ask him in addition what he had heard. '
?dr Brady bad never knowp a District Attorney
to ask what he had soon, and not what he-had
heard. It would he the mine as describing a pan
tomime. The .witness had already • testified to
hearing the report of a pistol.
The Judge did not agree with the District At
torney as to his right to question as to particular
loots, and leave the otter side to question about
other feats.
The witnesa continued I heard Mr. Sickles
make, the remark, "He has violated my bed;"
Mr. Key was then almost extended on the pave
meta, - lying on his elbow; the witness called to
those near to aid in earrying - lAm to the Club
House ; carried him to the back rani ; be was
stilt breathing ; put. my hand on his - heart, and
found it still pulsating; I asked ,him 'if he had
anything to say, supposing ,he might have some
word to mend to his children. or something
expla
natory of the moaner°. ; he made no response ,
whatever, as if he did not understand what I
said ; Dr. Coolidge came in about that time, And
I left the room; I do not know how many
shots were fired; three or four I wipe% ; when
I first 'went into the- Club House Mr. Key .
was jest north of the tree in the str, et, in w ailing
position, and near the gutter; the three persons
were near together; I think Mr. Key was on the
platform leading front the flagging to the pave
ment ; Mr. Slake was three or four feet from him
towards the (Nib Monis, and Mr Butterworth was
near the railing; I saw bim,but once; I knew
them all ; that wee after, first .shat ; did not
see anything of them till rater the first shot; the
remarkmade by Mr. Sickles wee made after the
last shoti and after the snapping of tbe pistol; 1
was beside - Mr. Key's body; Mr. Sickles was
standing beside him, with his beck to the railing
jnst then Mr. Butterworth approached, and he and
hlr. Sickle* withdrew.
Q. What was the distance between Mr. Butter
worth and Mr. Sir&les when you first saw them?
A. Nearly the width of the pavement ; I saw
,nopther persons in the neighborhood at the time;
Mr. Biala', walked off, and Mr. Butterworth
moved towards him; I lost sight of them at that
moment; I was attending to Mr. Key. - - -
Oross-examined• by Mr. -Brady.---I cannot say
how many reports of a pistol I heard •, I think
three or four; • the shots I heard were fired ra;
pidly ;, I did not see any pistol or anything else
plotted up; Mr. Key was dressed in a grayish Snit
of clothes ;be bad on no overcoat ; beard no
other expressions made at the time than the one I
mentioned.
Frames Doyle, sworn.—l was present at the
time of Mr. Key's death; I was in the back room
of the Club HOMO I looked in the direction of
the avenue and atm Barton Keg lying on the pave
ment, and Mr. Sickles a few feet, from bim, with
a pistol in his hand as if about to shoot him in the
bead; about the time I arrived Mr.gey said 4 •Don't
shoot;" I placed my band on Mr.-Biekles' shoul
der and begged him not to fire ; he desisted from
firing; he turned round as if to justify himself,
and said, "he has defiled and dishonored my' bed;"
I do not recollect which expression he used; be
May probably have used a harsher expression after
I spoke to him; he then turned round, showing
no farther intention to tire ; Mr. Butterworth was
then standing on the avenue, within a few feet' of
the corner; he approached and • took Sickles by
the atm, and walked off with him Up the street;
then my attention was called to the condition of
Mr. Key ; he was carried into the Oinb Nouse.
Q. Did you hear any other exclamation made
except that you have mentioned?
A. Not that I am aware of.
Q. Did you notice the dress of Mr. eickles?
' A. Cannot say that I did ; I think he had a
frock coat on; do not know whether it was an
overcoat; - the day wee a pleasant one, but do not
know. that it was particularly warm; Mr. Key
died almost immediately after he was tarried to
the Club Houle; I believe be breathed once.
Cross.examined by Mr. Bradv.—l presume I
wore an overcoat to the Club House; I usually
Wear one ; I did not notice any pistol or- other ar
ticle picked up; I did not hear 31r. Sickles make
any other remark than I have stated.
