Confession of Story
( Continued from page 1) )
slow and let your mind go back to
that very moment before you speak
a word. Now , slowly , what did
you do when he called you a son
of a b ? "
' 'I said , I don't take a son of a
b off of no man , and sprang
for him and tried to knock him
down , but he was too many for me
and warded off my licks , and soon
planted a heavy blow on my breast ,
which showed me that I could not
knock with him. So , having been
pretty handy in former days iu
wrestling , I thought to clinch him
and bv some wrestling1 trick might
get the advantage of him and whip
him yet But no sooner had I
clinched him than he showed me
that I could not hold him. In
clinching him it happened that his
left side was brought up to my
breast and my left arm around in
front of him , and in his grasp. My
right hand was hold of him about
the back of the neck , and all of a
sudden , quicker than a flash , Ilo < - tall
all my madness and frijiht t > ok it
place . In a glance I saw that he
could handle me , and no one
to interefere , and as we were
clinched I felt him releasing him
self from me , I feared for my life ,
and there seemed no possible way
for my safety but to shoot. My
right hand was not encumbered by
Fred , and , it being at his back , and
it was now or never , for in anoth
er second he would have me so I
could not shoot. I dropped my
right hand to my gun , which was
in my hip pocket , and placed it to
the back of his head , that being
the handiest for my right hand ,
and shot. "
"Sam , the coroner's inquest
says he was not shot , to which
Sara replied :
"I say that he was shot ! "
| ; Wellf go on , Sam. "
"As be fell out of my arms I
looked around to see if I was ob
served by anyone. No one was in
sight , and as 1 went to throw him
into the river to cover my deed ,
remembering that he had a little
money'which would help me in
flying the country , ' ! hastily took
this from his pocket. "
"Sam. did you know Fred bad this
money when you left Douglas ? "

er had a little money. "
' Sam , was Fred a willing partici
pant in the arguments that led up to
the fitrhtV"
"Yes Sir , he was. "
"Did either of you try to call it off
at anytime ? "
"No Sir , we did not. "
"Sam , when the skull is examined
will that skull speak the same words
to us that you have spoken , as to the
shot and the bullet being a 32 auto
matic steel bullet ? "
"Yes Sir. "
"Did you like Fred ? "
"Yes , orT would not have chummed
with him. "
' Was he a pleasant churn ? "
"Yes , very pleasant "
"Bad you any chance to kill F red
on this journey before ? "
"Lots of chances , but no such a
thoutrht ever entered my mind. "
"Did you not come to Valentine
purposely to do this crime , knowiner
the country with all its hills and
hollows ? "
"No , we expected to get clear down
to Long- Pine on that same train , hut
wa put off here at Valentine , n > r
had I anv thought of committing tl > *
crime until in the same SIM o. i
which I did it. "
"Were you frightened ? "
"Yes , desperately frightened/
the time I shot. "
"What was the immediate caus
of your fright was he threatening
to brain you ? "
"No , he threatened nothing with
his mouth , but his actions were fierce
and able. "
"Do you now believe , since you
thins back , that vou m : jht have
avoided the tragedy ? ' '
"Yes , because Fred was a pit-as-MI
dispositioned chum. "
If you had paid , "Chum , lets call n
off , " what would Fred probably ha e
taid and done ? " i
"I think he would have quit at once ,
and made friends. ' '
"Sam , do vou want a Irial ? ' '
"Well , I don't know what to do Mr
Latta "
"Well Sam , it might cost our coun
ty from one to three thousand dollars ,
and I don't know as a trial would do
vou any good , but it might be b st
for a jury to name the degree in which
your crime belongs. A jury could
pass upon this with nearlv no
cost to the county , and no matter
about the cost , I believe that \ou
have some rights in this matter
Now , poor fellow , I guess I mu'-t go '
'Well , Mr. Latta , I hardly know
what to do. Won't you come in and
advise me ? "
"Don't you want an attorney ? "
"No , I don't believe I do , but T
might want a little assistance in get
ting mv confession before the jury. ' *
'Well Sara , I wil ] submit this mat
ter to two or three of the bovs and
will report to you later , if agreeable
to Mr Rosseter " i
"Mr. Latta. Mr Rosseter will It t
vou come in to see me. f egiuse 1 e h -
been kind to me from the start con-
"idering "
"All right , Sam , good bve. "
"Good bje , Mr Latta/ '
