with a bed where he lay during the concluding argument of judge morris on the phit pait of the tion tiou the argument of judge morris was waa to the effect that a conspiracy was formed to kill chisholm and gilmer in to carry out this design the conspirators had an affidavit made before a magistrate charging chisholm gilmer rosenbaum rosen Bosen baum and hopper with having ina lna murdered or aided aud aad abetted in the murder of john W gully a few days previous that the object of that step was to disarm their victims chisholm chib Chia hoIm holm and gilmer and thus place them in such a condition that they could not defend themselves nor be defended by their staunch friends rosenbaum and hopper the only men most likely to stand by them and to defend them that the cause of the imprisonment ot of these four men was that the conspirators could more easily and with less danger to themselves take the lives of chisholm and gilmer the principal facts sworn to in support of this thib theory was the shooting of gilmer on the tha streets while on his way to the jail jall in the presence cresence of the defend defendants defendant ants ante the N declarations made by two men meri that day to two negroes a short distance from town that they had better turn back and not go to town that hell was to be played that day the killing hilling of mcclellan as he left the jail where he had been acting as one of the guards of chisholm re sen Een denbaum baura and hopper in the jail and who had been discharged by the sheriff the taking of thu the jail keys from the sheriff the

the prosecution could produce no other wit deasea to this declaration than relatives and friends of Chisholm the theory of the defense was waa that these men all came to town armed simply to assist the sheriff in the arrest of the parties charged with the murder of john gully in case they should resist with no predicate predicated design or conspiracy to take the life of any one that the declaration of the young men to two negroes groes on the me road a short distance from town if made at all for the of the negroes was affected meant only that chisholm and gilmer would probably resist arrest in which event there would bs the hell hall to pay that oa the shooting of gilmer by some hot blooded young man for the one who shot him was waw as aiso aleo a boy the flame burst hurst out among the younger men which the older could not control and which resulted in the death oi of chisholm and bis ala daughter that the defendant did at ai the moment before beoo re the shooting of cornelia and chisholm close the stairway door in front of them as they were descending sc ce the stairs BO so as to shield them from the mob at the time telling chisholm Chia holm hoim olm that if he
