Q. “You have spoken to GregorY?" “i met Gregory once in the spring and spoke to him about sprink' has in front of the factory. Otherwise i had only an acquaintance with mm suiiicient to pass the time of day.” . Q. “Gregory had threatened to lull you at this time. yet you did not run away or take means to defend your- self?" A. "I did not." , "You sometimes passed Gregolly Q. on the nor klcr'1" “Yes. sir." A. Q. “You [issued the time of day with him.” A. "Yes, I sometimes nodded.”- Q. "You did not carry a gun, lilo you?" A. “Yes, after i purchased it." Witness said that the greater the number of threats the more alarmed ”e became, but that he would not have used a weapon unless he was attacked. Referring: again to the visit of Wheeler to Attorney Light, the wit, noes admitted that. he had gone to see Mr. Light on other private business as wéil as that contracted with Gregory’s threats. Q. "You say you bought the pistol to protect yourself. yet you could have had Gregory arrested. and have avoid- ed further trouble?" A. “i suppose i might have done so." Q. “You did not have enough tear of your life being taken to run the risk of having a scandal?" A. "i had no reason to go to court if not attacked." Q. "Then you preferred to take the law in your own hands rather than have the matter go through the courts?" A. “1 considered 1 had a right to defend myself if i was attacked." Q. ‘,‘l‘)id Mr. Light advise you in this matter?" A. "As I now recall the fact, Mr. Light told me i could defend myself If attacked." Witness said he always carried his revolver with him in the evening when he was about town. 0n the night of the shooting. he said, he had the pistol in his pocket and got off the car to talk to Miss Englenart. He admitted he know there was a man stunt-where who had threatened to kill him. lie also stated that he got the pistol with the intention of defending himself and shooting ircgory if he was attacked. Aflcr tbc shooting and Gregory had sunk down, Wheeler said he walked down (flinpcl street a short distance and waited until Miss Englcbart came along. Q. "You know you had shot him. and that if he had been hit in a vital part it would linvc killed him. yet you ollcrcd him no assistance and did not go back to ace if be was dead?" A. “No. sir. i did not go back to see how had he was hurt." Q. "ilid you care?” ?iExcludcd.l Judge (lrcgory Inquired of Wheeler if he believed. when Gregory rushcd' up, that his life was in danger. \‘l’hcclcr responded that he did.

"Did it not become necessary for (‘rofut & Knapp to send Wheeler away because of uugontlemanly con- duct?" A. “No, sir." Attorney Lockwood asked this hypo- thetical question: “Assuming that a man is married and living with his wife. and it be- comes notorious that be In keeping company with another woman and is asked to leave town, is that gentleman- ly conduct?" Judge Gregory excluded the ones lion. Others questions on the part of the prosccutlug attorney tending to create scandal were ruled out of ordcr by the judge, an Wheeler's morals. good or bad. he held, had nothing to do with the shooting of Gregory. Q. “Don't you known that at the time thcicr went on his vacation. he, by his conduct. was provoking a quar- roi with Gregory?" A. "i did not.’ Q. "Didn't you know that Wheel- or'u conduct was creating disorder in the community at. this time?" A. "No. air." "Was he sent away by your firm at this time because his presence in town nifected tho orderlineaa of the community?" A. "If Mr. Wheeler was sent away I did not know of it." Q.

Prosecuting Attorney Lockwood was unable to shake her testimony in the least. She had perfect control of nor- sclf and preserved an even temper throughout the ordeal. Philip Wheeler also gave an appar- ently straightforward story upon the stand. but was shaken somewhat on cross-examination. At the close of the case Attorneys Lockwood and Walsh had a tilt over the introduction of the evidence of Mrs. Scott and Miss Illnglehart. At- torney Walsh stated that he had useu the witness because the prosecution torney Lockwood retorted that per- haps Mr. Walsh had the case fixed to suit himself.
