He said something to me. Officer Levee recalled said Doll spoke low to Lewis, asking for a ravolver. Lewis said he had none—that he might search the house for it. Doll said “Never mind, I can fix him without it.’ Mr. Lewis—I think Doll and Todd were out of thé house a few minutes about ten o’clock. Harry Northup, a bar-tender, testified that Thursday night. about 12 o’clock hé and his-wife, who live opposite the Leader, were putting some wood in the woodshed, when two men came along talking about saving souls, They passed along down towards the creek, but in a few minntes one came back alone and took from under the barn or shed back ‘of the National Hotel a club about three feet long and went up and down apparently looking for somebody, but did not see him, and I club. Mr. Doll was recalled and denied that he was the man with ‘the club or that so faras he knew he was at the Leader more than once Thursday night. At 11:25 a. m.

Officer Levee was recalled: Doll appeared angry when he asked Lewis for arevolver. He repeated the story of the trouble bet ween Todd and Doll at Lewis’ saloon. He said he expected to see trouble, and stayed half an hour or more to avert it. Todd was very insulting toward Doll. Dr. C. L. Muller was sworn. He made a post mortem examination ot the body of Todd. The cause of death was the rupture of a blood vessel in the upper part of’ the chest. The lungs were congested and a eonvulsion preceded the death. There were bruises on the face and neck. Some of the wounds on the face bled some. The oruises on the left side of the face were spparently the result of the man falling on his face. There was a bruise veneath the skin. The rupture of the vein was proabebly caused by a convulsion. There was a discoloration on the right side of the neck and on the Jaw, as though caused by a blow. Ik might have been cuused by a blow with a flat surface. Deatb would likely ensue a very few minutes after such a rupture. John O'Donnell wes next called. He was at Lewis’ saloon Tharsday nighi with Levee. .He saw ‘Todd and Doll when he went in at 9:30 or 10, He was there twenty minutes or so and they left before he did.
