TUB PUOSKCIJTtON.
Dr. Latt sworn I was called to see
S arali Jane Powers 1 it Tuesday evening;
she was .-hot near the spine, the ball
passing near the right kidney, coming
oat near the navel ; the wound was un
doiibted'y made by a bail from either a
revolver or rifte; she sulbred greatly,
but was to ali appearance perfectly con
scious. Elizabeth Hardiek sworn Know de
reaped; she was my mother; know de
fondant; lie cume after meat Mr. Pell's
hou-c Sunday morning; he said u.y
mother was dying, bui said he did not
know what was the matter with her uor
how long she hid been sick; 1 went to
the hou.-e and found her e-hot: she
thou.'.-ht she was dying, except at times
she had hopes of living when we en-coiii-aged
her, telling her she might re
cover; dec-a-ed said she was coming
fVoiu the garden to t lie house; she heard
the leport of a gun and felt herself
wounded ; she hallooed, but no one
heaid her ; she can e on to the house and
laid down; laid some time and called
M rs. -Jacob', who was at Bake's house,
and had her go into the field for my
brother Jot. n ; she .-aid there was brush
on one side of the road and a fence on
the other, and that the report of the gun
was from behind her; she described the
p'ao.e very minutely, so that I could tell
where it was exactly fence on one side
and bru-h on the other, very close to the
road ; there was no timber close noth
ing but brn-h, tall as my head ; the
lm-h was on the right hand side of the
road when goirnr toward the house ; had
to go past Pake's garden to go from
wheie she wa shot to the house ; de
fendant went fjr the doctor; when he
came back he said he did not get a doc
tor; defend nit appealed very much ex
cited and trembled bad'y ; defendant
had a pitol when be went after the doc
tor ; deceased said if she could only talk
.she could tell a .ereat deal.
Cross examined Mrs. Bakes was pres
ent during the first conver.-ation I had
with decea-ed; I think there was no one
but Mr. Hakes and myself present ; de
fen bint had a pi-tol when he came back
from thedocto: ; he had the pistol in"a
hol.-ter fa-t to a belt ; I could see the
h in lie of the pi.-toi ; he was standing
I'iciiig me when I saw the pi-tol; do not
know it' he ha I the pi-tol when he
.-ta ted after the doctor.
T. (J. Kendall sworn I knew de
ceased; fir.-t saw her alter she was shot
between 4 and G o'clock on the same day;
aecea-e-i was then lyinir in a baa condi
tion; (d not hear her .-ay anything
about 'viu or about the place where the
h jotiisji t;ok place; there were many
there, and 1 gave way for deceased to get
air; the party pre -out went ami exam
ined the groun 1 ; I did not go first time ;
we went a.ua'n in the evening, Jesse
K.-win. James Krwni and myself; went
and examined the grove, where there was
an old path ; we examined and found
trucks going in the direction of where
the shooting was done; the track was
peculiar, showing only ha'f of the heel
c-ack; track was lie-h and plain, show
ing part of hoc!, ball of foot and toe;
the track led toward the road which
p i ses along Bakes fence ar und his
pia'v: I oniy saw the tracks of this pecu
liar kind ; they were made by a left boot;
there were so many different tracks along
the main ron 1 that we could not tell
whether this track wh- there or not : we
saw two or three p!;:ce w here the bushes
were bent and pressed down, not large
enough for a brute to have made them,
but looked like a man had sat down ;
this was within a step ortwo of the road ;
have known defendant well for the last
two years; I was present when defend
ant was arrc:-ted. and I examined his
boots ; the heel of the left boot had on
a rvp on the out -ide ; the track aud the
foot eorresponled very well; 1 have no
doubt the bo u made the track we saw.
Tlie boor were pre.-eiitcd and the left
one identified by the witness as the one
faken oil the primmer at the time of his
arrest When arro-ted. Mr. Erwin
a-ked defendant fr his revolver, and he
crave it up: Krwin a-ked defendant
when tint load was put in, and defend
ant said '! his morning ;" he was asked
why he loaded it, and he said he "loaded
hi revolver as he damned pleased, and
it was nobody's bu ioess;" he appeared
to be a little excited, bnt not very much ;
I should in lire from awiearances that all
the load in the ii.-to! had been in seve
ral days, except th ene, and that looked
'.ike it bad been fre-h bwjed ; this ar
te -t was made on Tue-day afternoon;
the roa I where the bit-hes are, is in a
southeasterly direction from Mr. Bakes
hou e ; Hake's garden fi-nie is probably
-even md-f.om the yard fence; Bakes
garden is nearly south from Hakes house
the road passes it.
Crr-ex--imineJ Dr. Latta arrived af
ter I did souv? time after; the path
leads from the bruise to the road, and
was formerly ucd as a near by-path;
the path is very narrow, and it appeared
as tho .irh tho other f ot had stepped on
the grass : the ground was not so hard
in the path but tint the foot: would make
a track in omo p'aa s; do not think I
could have leen tni-taken in which boot
made the track ; saw no other tracks ex
cept one or two whre a hruto had passed
along ; T suppose it wa ltetween 5 and
fi o'clock when I examined the path;
Mr Erwin men uel the track and also
the liot ; I think pri-onor wasnot under
arrest when he gave tip (lie revolver.
ies.-e I'.rwm swovn was caiieu on
about the mi Idle of the afternoon o
Tuesday to go up and see, if anything

Mrs. Powers: deee-sl said some one
had shot her from fx hind her. from the
brit-h, wlvkj she was coming down the
road ; f eyit:i?-' hce d ew a pint of the
Mirroun lings field, rard-n. road, brush,
house, nath, etc . an 1 ".vh'bited it, show
ing the ioint where the bru-h comes up
close to the ro:id as the point where Mrs.
Powers said she was -hot j; I went with
others, ami examined ths place where
he -ad the -hot was fired from, and
f-und the 1ru li bent down within a few
arcps of wh'-re .-he v.ts when shot ;
Bakes sai l he wt in the garden when
the shooting was d-tne, and showed me
the pine where he s:tys he stood; there
are tracks ha ing from that place to
wttrd'the "outha-t comer of the gar
den ; I saw three distinct tracks on the
path, and of hers not very distant; I
measured the tracks in the e-arde.i, also
thOiC on the nath ; I wo'uld su noose
Jkera -6c k the S222e trsok" ; the trtk4
correspond wi:h tita boot now in court ;
(w;tiiesf ;orto!onted Mr. Kin-lali's
statement in rtg'od to the nppearaep of
the tiacks, aLo a. to the reo.ver) ; pris
oner said he had loutled the one tie-h
load that morning, then said no, it was
the day before, and finally said he loaded
it as he damned pleased, aud it was no
body's business ; I had said nothing to
prisoner about the killing when I took
the pistol ; prisoner tolu in he was ho
ing in the garden when he heard the
shot over towards the road ; prisoner
dropped his head when I asked hiui
about the fresh load, and never looked
straight at me afterwards; wheu I took
the pistol from him, I asked hitu when
he put in the fresh load ; he answered,
"this morning ;" I asked him what he
-hot at ; he then remarked "no, I loaded
it yesterday no, I don't know when I
loaded it;"
Cro-s Examined Tlie conversation
about the pistol and the fresh load oc
curred in the garden, before night ; I af
terwards put on the boot of the
prisoner, and stepped in the
soft ground. Those who measured the
track said it corresponded with the tracks
I measured in the garden. I do not
know whether it was the right or left
track I measured in the garden.
Re-direct. The garden is about half
way from the house to the fence where
the deceased said she was shot. A man
could go from where the prisoner said he
stood to where the woman was shot,
and back, inside of five minutes.
James Erwin sworn I know defen
dant. I went with Jesse Erwin and Mr.
Kendall to examine the tracks; the
track I noticed particularly was made
with a left boot ; I saw one track I sutr
posed to be made with a right boot, but
it was a very dim one could hardly tell
that it was atrack. (Boots were pre
sented and identified as the ones taken
off the prisoner.) The tracks corres
ponded with the boots ; the bu-hes
near where the shooting was done had
been mashed down ; the plaee where
the bushes were mashed down I should
think to be about two hundred yards
from Mr, Hakes' garden ; saw apparent
tracks in four or live places, but only
two or three plain ones.
John 1'owers sworn I'nsoner came
to me on Tuesday morning and said my
mother was about to die that he be
lieved they said she was shot ; this was
before he went for my sister.
Samuel Blodgett sworn lvnew de
ceased, also knew defendant : after pris
oner came from getting a doctor, when
Mr. .Lrwin took pistol from prisoner,
Erwin asked him when he nut in the
fresh charge; he said, first, in the
morning; he afterwards changed, and
said it was the day be fore, aud finally de
clared it did not make any difference
when he loaded it.
Cross-examined Do not know wheth
er or not l wouM consiaer jir. Arwin s
request for the pistol in the nature of a
demand ; might havy been five persons
present when Erwin took the pistol from
prisoner cannot tell how many; the
question as to when the revolver was
loaded referred to the particular charge
which was fresh loaded ; could tell the
fresh load by the appearance of the ball
and cap; prisoner admitted that this
barrel had been loaded at a different time
from the others.
J. W. MeCune Was present at a
conversation hetween prisoner and Jesse
.hrwm regarding a revolver belonging to
Mr. Isrown ; prisoner said he wanted
Erwin to take care of his revolver ; pris
oner said Brown asked him to load his
revolver ; he said he loaded Brown's
i .
revolver tnrougn mistake, supposing it
was his own ; this convar.-atinn was lata
in the evening, as we came from ths
branch.
Solomon Long Knew deceased and
defendant; pri-oner came to my house
Tuesday evening ; I asked him how the
folks were ; he said they were all well
except that old woman, an.! .-he was shot;
I asked him who he thought shot her,
and he said he did not know unless it
was Geo. Hardiek ; that she was going
to go down that day and give George a
going over.
Cross Examined Prisoner said
George owed the old lady 5(). and that
the old lady was down on George for
whipping her boy ; Geo. Hardiek lives
southeast of Hakes.'
Nicholas Trook Knew deceased, also
prisoner; was present when the revolver
was taken from prisoner ; Erwin ex
amined the revolver and remarked,
"gentlemen, there is a suspicious look
ing load in this revolver ;" Erwin asked
prisoner what he shot the load at, and
he made no answer ; he asked prisoner
when he put that load in. and he said
that morning ; one load looked like it
was fresh loaded ; defendant reached out
as if to take the revolver, and Erwin
told him to hold on, he would
take care of the revolver
prisoner first said he loaded the revolver
this morning," then said, "no, I load
ed it yesterday." I know of three who
were present wnen tne revolver was
taken.
Lewis Smith sworn Never saw de
fendant until last Tuesday ; he a-kcd me
for Dr. Latta ; I asked him who was sick.
and he said "the woman over south of
here iu the grove." I asked him what
was the matter with her and he said
"the fever."
Cross-examined The rri-oncr went
from me towards Rock Bluffs, not to
wards Dr. Latta's house ; when he said
the woman was sick he pointed towards
Rakes Grove.
Jesse Indicott sworn I knew deceas
ed, also defendant ; have seen defendant
have a revolver in the field ; I had a
conversation with prisoner some time in
May ; he said, during the conversation.
that "some of them would smell hell;"
that "he did not propose to rent them
ground and then tend it too."
Geo. Hardiek sworn Deceased wastnv
mother-in-law; never had any difficulty
with the deceased ; she nor her son were
neither of them at my house on the dav
of the shooting; I n-ver whipped the
boy ; have threatened to when he lived
with me, some time ago ; I am her se
curity for $50 ; do not owe her anything
that 1 know ot.
Cross-ExaviineJ I live about a haf
mile from Rakes ; I got $140 from her
about to years ago ; I bought her a
horse with part of the money, and spent
th balance of the money t'or coining
and provisions for her familv ; shea-k d
me, last Friday, it we had not better
settle ; rhe went to my hou e often
sometimes two or three times a wet k : I
kept as correct an account of th money
spent as I could in my h"ad ; was talking
with Mr. Trook, in his field, about 8
o'clock Iat Tuesday morning ; talked
wuh Mr. Trook sometime pmbnhly an
hour and a half: Mr. Pctl was with me
talking to Mr. Trook ; Mr. Pell went
with me to Mr. Trook's fi-ld, distant
about a mile am! a half; went from
Trook's field to Mr. Clarence's; went
from Clarence's home ; got homo about
12 o'clock ; Mr. Fell was with me from
the time 1 left home until after I r
turned, and went with me to old man
Hakes' after deceased was shot ; it was
three or four o'clock tefore I went up to
Hakes'; I got a number of the neighbors
to go up to Hakes' with me.
J. N. Baker sworn Saw prisoner
last Tuesday, hunting Dr. Black ; he
said there was a laiy shot down the
country abont ten nit'c; I a ked him
how she came to be shot, and he said
there were some boys out squirrel hunt
ing amd 3oideatwHy ehtrt her. :
Minion B own Have I eert working at

he had never owned it) my revolver was
at the old man Hakes' last Tuesday ; I
was formerly hired by Isaac Hakes, but
was working at the old man Hakes, on
Tuesday.
Dr. J. W. Thomas (Coroner) I am
Coroner of Cass county ; I held an in
quest on the body of Sarah Jane Powers;
tne ball entered above the- right h'p.
coming out at the right of the navel;
the wound had the appearance of being
produced ty a pistol or rifle ball ; (the
pistol of prisoner was here shown the
witness, and he testified that the ball
now in the pistol would, iu his. judgement,
make a wound about the .-ize of the one
where the baH entered the body of Mrs
Powers) ; it is my opinion that the
wound wa- mortal.
The prosecution here asked to intro
duce the verdict of the Coroner's Jury
as evidence, which, after being arpued
on both sides, was admitted by the court
in the nature of a complaint. The ful

Attest: J. W. Thomas, Coroner.
Cross-examined I did not try a bullet
of the size used in the prisoner's re
voiver in tne wouna ; coui i not swear
that the wound was made by a shot from
this revolver ; we did not make a imst
mortem examination ; th- wound might
have been made with a ball a little lar
ger or a little smaller than the ones use
in the prisoner's revolver; the bal
lit
passea ooiiqueiy upward ; ball passed
very near the right kidney, and through
a part of the right bowels; could not
swear that the ball cut an artery ; the
blood was venus blood.
Jes. e krwin re-called I he witness
was handed the pistol iu court and asked
it he ever saw it.
"I took this pistol from the prisoner
it is the same one I spoke of in my for
mer evidence. ilie pistol was here
placed in evidence. I Ihe measure spo
ken of by witness in his former evidence
was shown hiui and identified as the
measure taken by him.
f roxs-exa m wed l cannot say post
tively that the tracks in the garden am
in the woods were the same, nor that
these boots made them, although they
ate very similar ; tbw hiicd boot is very

The prosecution hre rested their case.
DEFENCE.
Mr. Maxwtll. on the part of the de
fense, stibbmitte 1 the following motion :
STATE OF NEBRASKA, 1 In Justice Court
v. lef'Pi-
GALL XT HAKTS. J Jame O'Neiii.
Aud now comes the defendant, Gallant
Hakfs, and move-- the court now here to
discharge said defendant and dismiss this
proceeding.
1st. Because there is no evidence
showing that said killing occurred in Cass
county, and that this court has junvJic
tion.
I'd. There i o evidence before said
court rendering it probable that defend
ant committed the offense.
Wherefore defendant praya to be dis
charged.
Marquett, Maxwell & Chapman
Atty. for Deft.
The motion involved the discussion of
all the evidence, and was virtually a test
of the case. It was handled with great
earnestness by the legal gentlemen. Th
speeches of the gentlemen on the de
fence and prosecution were able and
trenchant. We noticed particularly the
eloquence and power of Mr. Geo. S
Smith, a young lawyer who settled here
this spring. We predict for him i
bright career in his profession. The mo
tion was overruled. Thedefence decided
to not introduce any evidence, and the
prisoner was committed for trial at the
next term of the District Court
to commence on the 25th instant.
I'nsoner is nineteen j-ears old, is
about 5 feet 8,or9 inches in height weighs
about 160 pounds, has dark brown,
nearly bla k, hair; small, expression
less bluish grey eyes ; and in his general
appearance, is about as dull and sullen a
looking specimen of a young man as you
will meet in a lifetime. He seemed al
most eutir-ly in different as to what was
going on during the trial, showing no
emotion whatever.

We find the following personal notice
of Gen. Strickland in a recent number
of the Cincinnati daily Chronicle :
Scores of the old members of the Fif
tieth O. V- I. gave a hearty greeting, iu
this city yesterday, to their former com
mander, Gen. S. A. Strickland, who
passed through on his way from Wash
ington to his home in Omaha. The
General looks hea ty, and does not ap
pear to have lost either the rotundity of
physical proportions or the" good humor
which always characterized him by his
residence in the thriving city on the
muddy Mis-ouri. He gives a glowing
account of his We-tern city, aud says
that Nebraska is bound to take a front
rank in the sisterhood of States.
