the horse called the gray horse
and sometimes the white, to be hitched to the buggy. There was a
blacksmith named Jones, there getting a horse, and the stranger did
not want the white horse, but wanted the other rig. Mr. Dinan told
him he could not have that; he did not know where it was going and
he knew what this horse was going to do, and Moreland got the old
gray horse. You remember that Dinan said that it had not been out
of the stable for quite a while and had not been driven. This was a
little after 7 o'clock. He wanted side curtains and Dinan told him
it was a warm evening and he did not need side curtains and it
would take too long to put on side curtains. The man, grumbling,
got into the buggy and they put on the hitching strap to it, and
Dinan tells you that this man had a low-crowned, narrow-rimmed
slouch hat. That he did not see his eyes, because he pulled his hat
over his forehead, but his face looked as if it had not been
shaven, and he had a black or a brown mustache. He gives his height
as 5 feet and 7 inches, and said that he had a dirty, faded looking
overcoat. Moreland testifies to the same thing; that the man had on
a low-crowned, narrow-rimmed slouch hat, and that his face looked
dirty, and he describes him about the same that Dinan does.

"How did the horse start when he turned out? It went directly
north. Dinan swore that he was anxious to see the horse drive off,
and he watched the man drive north on Clark street. Then he was
going north. Mrs. Conklin tells you that a man came there a little
after seven o'clock and came to the door and rang the bell, and
that Sarah McNearney and Agnes McNearney were there at the office.
You remember the description of the house; there were two flats,
and Dr. Cronin occupied one front room and Mr. and Mrs. Conklin
used the other front room for living purposes. She states that when
this man came to the door she admitted him into the room. He says
he is in a hurry and wants the Doctor, and the Doctor says, 'very
well; I will be there in a minute.' You remember now that the
McNearney girl, who was sitting outside, says that he had on a
slouch hat with a narrow brim and his face had not been shaven for
some time. He had a very keen eye--his eye was so piercing that she
could not look at him, and
