was asked. t
"I couldn't say whether I was or
not, I'm not altogether sure about it,"
Prevost replied. He declared that he
was called before his questioners at

"I was led into the prosecutor's
room, then taken out and put into a
little room, and then somebody else
brought in. I was worried, confused,
and even frightened," he told the
jury. "I didn't even go to supper."
The defense questioned him con
cerning the gun which the prosecu

brown.
"Is this the revolver which LJoyd
gave you to take home and fit with
bullets?" the defense questioned.
"I have not had time- to go into the
matter. I am simply giving you my

witness stand. Selk, according to the
testimony of Stanley Prevost Tues
day, was the boy who felt of the gun
in his pocket. He told the jury that
the first and second times he appeared
in the grand Jury probe he held
back the truth, but on the third oc
casion he came through. He testified
when questioned by Judge Lamb that
he was a little excited at the secret
hearing and admitted that he felt
better In the courtroom than during
ihe questioning in the prosecutor's
chamber. He told the jury that
Stanley Prevost told him tlfat he was
going to take the gun up to his uncle
at the Kdison after they met at the

declared that he would return in a
