the foreman and two others of that jury were n non on mormons cormons Mor mons the foreman was for acquittal one of the other Gentile Gentl les lea sll all proposed to vote for acquittal if the other would but he refused hence his vote was waa to please his friend and not because the evidence justified it again the jury and not tho judge were the sole j judges of the credibility of the witnesses and so 0 o his honor aa asi in d duty ty bound instructed them why t hen then this foul insinuation and insult those who test teat testified aled fled anything that could be construed against lee were participant san band ban sand d the main one wasso vasso was vas so deeply imbued in the horrible massacre that a although bo wag was free from prosecution by being allowed to testify on ithe the former trial the government for shames shamed sake and that of justice would not permit him to testify on thelast the last trial although brough brought ka a long distance for that purpose the stat statement ement that the evidence was plain is simply false and no unprejudiced person who is posted can say bay otherwise on the second trial the evidence was vas plain and left na no reasonable doubt and the jury did what the first doubtless would have done with the same proof found the prisoner guilty the judge says for some cause the evidence adduced ou the second trial was wag not brought out on the first why does be he not come out like an honest man and tell the cause he is well posted by the evidence of jacob hamblin and others the cause is that the former trial was really a trial of the leaders of the church churon of the latter day saints and no one knew anything that would he be applicable iii in a trial of that kind but when the present prosecuting attorney hon ron sumner howard announced that he wished to t get at the facts and only the facts and to prosecute only the guilty originators and willing abettors abet tors be found all the aid he asked for and judge cradlebaugh would under the tho same bame circumstances cum bum stances have found the same it was wag effean effee ed him Bore manto mante the contrary notwithstanding his statement that a again against atthe the emigrant from salt lake city to the bloody field existed iskot is biot warran warranted ted tod by any reliable evidence adduced on an either trial itis a mere mero fabrication made butof the fact that thata a war wa r v was enns on foot which might inight for aught any abne knew know last for years in consequence of which the governor advised d that no grain be fed to citizens animals or sold to emigrants for that purpose but hut simply to sell to them what they need for food the evidence of nephi johnson alig took ia in dispi dispatch teh to and from governor young the lie

efforts were ilna tina unavailing every old settler I 1 in n the territory knows and the evidence has been before the p present res incumbent t that the then luling ruling offered to aid the tile late cradlebaugh and have every one accused brought into his court but he declined all aid in the matteri will further say and judge boreman knows if he be has searched tha the territorial record that thou t the authority of law and the government al washington so decided called out the troops under the late rebel Job joh johnson plat plated placed ed them on provo hench bench ench with artillery leveled upon the city them thew surrounded the courthouse court houle house with federal bayonets without any resistance whatever having been cnown him to this thia oha ofa governor alfred cumming
