produced in court.

Rainey testified that he had seen a quantity of murderous looking
black-jacks in the Commercial Club for distribution to the deputies. He
also saw men fall overboard from the Verona and saw none of them
rescued. He thought there were twenty-five men with guns on the boat,
and he did his firing at the main deck.

"And you didn't care whether you hit one of the twenty-five or one of
the other two hundred and twenty-five?" scornfully inquired Vanderveer.

"No sir," said the miserable witness.

The next witness called was William Kenneth, city dock wharfinger in the
employ of Captain Ramwell. This witness testified that there were
numerous holes in the warehouses that were smooth on the inside and
splintered on the outside, thus indicating that they were from shots
blindly fired thru the walls from within. On being recalled on the
Monday morning session of March 26th the witness said he wished to state
that he was unable to testify from which direction the holes in the
warehouses had been made. It appeared that he had discovered the bullet
marks to have been whittled with a penknife since he had last viewed
them.

Arthur Blair Gorrell, of Spokane, student at the State University, was
on the dock during the trouble and was wounded in the left shoulder
blade. He stated that he knew that McRae had his gun drawn before he was
shot.

Captain K. L. Forbes, of the scab tugboat Edison, next took the witness
chair. He didn't like the idea of calling his crew scabs for the
engineer carried a union card. When questioned about the actions of the
scab cook on the Edison, this witness would not state positively that
the man was not firing directly across the open space on the dock at the
Verona, and in line with Curtis and other deputies.

Thomas E. Headlee, ex-mayor of Everett, bookkeeper at the
Clark-Nickerson mill, and a citizen deputy, said he went whenever and
wherever he was called to go by the sheriff.

"Then it's just like this," said Vanderveer, "when you pull the string,
up jumps Headlee?"

This witness tried to blame all the fires in Everett onto the I. W. W.
and the absurdity of his testimony brought this question from the
defense:

"Just on general principles you blame it on the I. W. W.?"

"Sure!" replied the witness, "I got their reputation over in Wenatchee
from my brother-in-law who runs a big orchard there."
