Almon Eaton, wae the next witnt.s3, ana
was sworn as folloWs:
"I was at Mann's the night the girl, disap

searched the creek, going north of the ravine
and then searched Mr. Reel's sugar bush
and flat. We then recrossed the creek and
went back to Mann's, staying there about , an

and then hitched up the horse and in vim

Miss Bose Leonard, a daughter. of the

the night the girl disappeared and gave the
following account or a conversation with Mrs.

her any further.
B. P. Leonard, , Melvin Fanning, Jessie
Guild, G. EL #eynolds and David tanning,
swore to statements. male to-there by thp•
accused before the body was found. These
statements placed the whereabouts of the
missing girl in different localittei and con
flicted slightly.
Charlie Reed, a boy of 11., and the person'
who found the body, was the. neat witness.
In a clear, pleasauttiroice he gave the follow
ing account of finding the dud_ girl:
"On the Ilth'of.o.2toher last, / was on my
way to school at Troy. In order to save a
longer walk, I was accustomed to take a path
which led me thro ugh the fields and within

Of A. B. Fanning was substantially the same
as Mr. Hooker's. -
J. P. Doane, a juror at the inquest, de
scribed the condition of the body and position
on the the tree. He also testified •to what
Mrs. Mann told him regarding the girl's die
aeaeararme and whit traces of her where
aboute she poasesaed.-
br. G. W. Gregory, the 'examining surgeon
at the inquest, was next called: _
'I was at the Mann's the night the 'body
was found, and saw it hanging to the tree.
- The next morning I acted al attending pity
sitian at the inquest. The girl watt dressed
~ :ir!„,a dress, Waist, skirt and white underskirt,.
With a handkerchief about her neck. 'The
underskirt - had been dragged off and was free
from the body excepting min foot, Tha out-
Bide skirt ivaa in phiee'and had fractured the
kkia where it was fastened- around the body.
She had on neither shoes nor bat. She was
hanging from the tree, the body - leaning
slightly forward.. One hand bad rested on a
limb of the tree: and dropped off, leaving a
part of the skin still on the limb. The bead
bad dropped back. The knot was tied under
the chin. The enda of tho handkerchief were
tied in the rope. The body had decayed so
that the knot was above the chin. I held the
body while it was out down. First examined
the body—found no bones- broke!). The pro
cess- of decay was too far advanced to tell
whether the body had been .violated or not,
On the back of the head wail a contusion
which had been caused by a heavy blow-from
game dull instrument. The blood hail settled
under the scalp. Such a blow might have
caused death. The blow might or might not
thaw caused death. .There was nothing that
(convinced me that death resulted from this
'blow alone. The girl bad been
~ dead at least
a month. The skull was not fractured. The,
body bad been on ,the tree for a long Gem, as
the skin of the knee had /fallen off on the
ground:'
Dr. Gregory was recalled several times, but
gave no evidence of sufficient interest to de
,mand,a recital.
F. H. Hoffman, the gentlemen who acted
as coroner at the inquest, was called and a
number of measurements, concerning the
Position of the body on the tree were sworn
to. The witness' evidence was of too techni
cal a character for an extended notice. '
The remainder of the afternoon we,s spent
in proving by the prosecution that the body
on the tree was that of Dora Mann. Under
the searching crossqueittioning of Mr. Drake,
several of the witnesses became quite con
fused and were led into making very amusing
answers.
A LAIWE CROWD
was present during the entire day, and every,
inch of standing room in the court house was
crowded.
At 6 P. sr. the court 'dimmed for tho day
At nine o:clock Yriday. morning the coat

the court room. The forenoon was spent by
the prosecution in attempting to prove Mrs.
Mann's brutal conduct toward the girl, The
first witness sworn was Morris Levering. By
this witness no - evidmice was gained that
would make Mrs. Mann a more severe parent
than thousands of others. 'Meek. Kennedy,
Was the neat witness sworn, and gave no evi
dence whatever of Mrs. Mann being a brutal
parent.
Mrs. Alvira Barrett was sworn and gave
several instances of Mrs. Burr acting very
brutal toward the girl; but as it was proven
that the witness possessed a strong dislike for
the. accused, her evidenCe would probably
have no undtte weight with the jury. James
Barrett, Alice Cole Ind Mrs. Bars Cole
also gave evidence of 3lre. i Mann's severity
toward the dead girl. In ;itch instande, hoW..
ever, it was proven that the witnets had feel
