testify thnt I snld my brother wna ;
usMissluatcd. I do not know every
thing I said to them. I know what
I thought. Tho only reason that I
had lu telling them thnt Hen hnd
been assassinated was In order to tell
my mother about It myself. I wanted
to tell her Just how it was and tho
truth about the mutter mid thought
It would bo better for mo to tell hor
than for some one else to. 1 do not
know what words I used In telling
tl-ryo men that. My mother wns ex
pecting uk to bo nssasslnated and
'hat's why I said thnt I supposo. I
wanted to tell her about tho matter
nnd tell her the whole truth. I did
not ret my mother that night. I sent

her. I was at tho Lovo hotel at tho manifestation of loyalty and patn r.-
tlmi. I did not see my mother for ! am or. the part of I to members It Is
four or live days. I was hero In jail
at the tlnio 1 Raw hor. I .wanted to
bo the first one to toll her how It
was so that It would not worry hor.'1
I wanted to see that she got the
Ftralght truth about It. That Is why
I wanted to tell her myself. 1 do not
know how long Hon lived nfter ho
was shot. 1 know Granville Young
I heard his testimony. I wns not lu
the horse lot wltn Hen at the time he
testified. 1 was not In tho lot on
thul Sunday at all. Hen was lu bed
as'.r.ep until noon that day. Tho llrst
time I saw Granville ho was Into

coin. I did not havo any conversa-

gone a little while and camo back
