He had a falsa mustache at the time I talked with him. matt ik j. auikoN Testified aa follow: Wa acquainted With Charlie Campbell. Got acquainted with him in 1SS3. About tha first of No vember last I received a letter signed "J BlaukheaeV' which I believed wa from Charlie. I answered them. Wo were en Mod to bo married in Deo. 18S3, and the engagement was broken in the spring of 1884. I broke it because he broke bis promise to me that he would quit drinking. The en gagement waa renewed in the latter part of 1884 and broken off again in Juno, 1885. Ho then began talking about me and showing my letters around and then 1 broke the en gagamont again. We did not apeak after that until the time I went to Eugene last July. I went there to get rid of him for he had threatened to kill me. After I had been there about 12 days he came up there. He os me to D R Lakin'a where I wa stopping and told me he had had a row with hi "old man" and that be was going to Ashland. 1 to'.d him I would neyer have anything more to do with him. He annoyed me with hi visits up tnere and watched me on the streets to walk with me. He came into my millin ery store in 1883 determined to make me marry him. He wa drank. I wa at my desk. He could hardly stand np be wa so drank. He drew a pistol and said be had a mind "to paralyze me right there." He had before threatened to aid me. He said I had sent him to hell. I aaw him every day for about ton day after I broke the engagement Ho came to my shop a often a throe time a day when he waa drank, and swore at and wood me all the time. I told him that after ho bad talked so much about me I would never marry him. He said he would talk about me until I had not a friend left iu Al bany. He said he would follow me anywhere and that I should never have another happy moment I told him he moat not come to my shop. Ho said he had given np ever marryiag me. He said w oould not live happy together. I reoeived several anony naona scandalous letters which I believe were fro a him. I burned them up. They were in sulting and abusive. The Last letter I re ceived prior to Nov. 4th was in September about the time of the play of the "Hidden Hand" here in Albany. The letter signed "J filankhoad ' came through the Albany post eta. Is ran something like this i That bo waaa stranger in town and wanted to form my acquaintance, that I could do him a great favor that won id cost me but little, bat would afford Lim much pleasure. I did not know what to do about it. Teld Harry Putnam that I knew it wa from Campbell I enclosed the letter to Capt Saunders, Told him to come down. The same day Capt Saunders came down and asked me if I atUi feared trouble from the aame source. This wa at oar houae. Tne next morniug we talked the matter over and decided the Lest thing to d was to see Campbell. I told Saunders I thought "Ibid" Johnson wrote the letter and that Campbell would meet me. I answered the "J BUnkhead" letter and told him 1 would meet him in front of the Eogine Hons. I received a reply tolling me to meet him at the Court Houae. Oa tho aame afternoon we were aitting at tha table at my mother's when Capt Sauuders told my mother about our pian to meet Campbell. Ma did not want me to go for ahe waa afraid Campbell would kill me. In the evening after supper I went to my store. I left my store at half past 7 o'clock and saw no one as I passed the Kogine Houae. I went on towards tho Court Houae. There waa no arrangement lor Saun der to meat us anywhere. About half way between Mansfield s and the Court House I met Campbell in disguise and passed him without speaking. I went on and passed the Court Heta on the north or front aide until I got to the corner aud then turned back and walked overly to the other corner when I met Campbell and aaid "good eveuing," and he answered in a squeaky, disguised voice We walked along towards Mr Mason's resi dence. He asid "Bud" Johnson wrote the letters. He accused me of writing insulting letteis to him, but I did not. Ho said be would now get even on me. I teld him I tbojght be wa far ahead. I told him ha was doing all lie could against me. I told him if ho had acted right I would have married him. He aaid if he could not marry me, he would rain me and that he would begia that night. We went on to Mason's corner where we met Capt Sauniers. There was no un do -standing about Capt Saunders and Camp twa'l mi.tliin U.n.Ln U . ,1 ..1.1 . . right home . I did not tea Capt Saunders an. til he wa right upon or. He came op in front of u. I wa a little in front. Sounder asked Campbell what he meant by writing those insulting letters to Mattie. Campbell aid, "it u none of voir da business." "You son of a b h, I will kill you. " Saun. der aaid it wa his business and must be stopped. Campbell then stepped back and put his right hand bask and Saunders fired. Campbell asked if this all came of me, and then I suppose I said it did, not that I want ed anything of the kind. Campbell asked if I oould forgive him for all the wrong he had done me. When Saunders fired I put my hand on his arm and I think the pistol fell. Campbell said he would die. Saundera said, "oh my Qod, don't say that." Campbell said ha was ahot in the bowels and in the leg. I started for a doctor and rret Dr Maaton. A wo came up I lie .r I Standee say it wa ac cidental. When they first met at the place of killing Saundera aaked Campbell about the letters and Campbell called him a d n s n of a b h and said he would kill him. I felt satisfied when I went out I would mee Campbell. After the shooting I told them to take Campbell to our house, bnt when we got there mother said, "they mutt not bring that man here, it will Rill me." Cross examination. - IUyo often walked out in town with Campbell. ponded with him under fictitious names. My engagement with Charley was finally broken off in 1893. Ho threatened often to take mv life. Ho drew his pistol on me In my shop. Campbell did not talk very load in my shop. He did not oomo in atter dark. t engagement was not ml. Promised to marry him just to keep him away from our house. Never told Mrs Mansfield the next day after the shooting that bar words had come true, that they had ended in sorrow, or that I would rather have done it with my own hand than to havo called in a third party to do it. Did not raise my yoioe on the walk from court houas to Mason's until Campbell said he would begin to ruin me that night. Did not aay anythiug to Camp bell about hia being in disguise. 1 may havo aaid when I nasaod McAllister's gate : "I have changed my mind." Redirect. Do not think the writer at the inquest could have written all 1 said. 1 wa not uarticular to see that all wa written down, Mr Nutting wa tha writer. My sis ex ter and Saunders wero then promised to be married. I had tha writer to make two cor roctions. Mr Whitney, Hilyeu and Black burn wco my-Attorneys at that time. Mil.

Told her Campbell would not come there. Mattie waa there 10 or 12 days when Campbell came up. He called on Mattie. Mattie said she would not see him and asked ire to go to tha door and tell him that ahe was not there. He wout off some distance and then came bock. Told Mattie he wanted to see her a minute. She aaid the would have nothing more -to do with him. She stayed three weeka at Eugene and at my house two nights. Do not know how long Campbell waa there that time.

About six weeks before the killing Mattie said the bad been eogsged to Charley for fun and 1 told her her fun would end in sorrow.

Judge Boise charged the jury at length, end tbe jury retired at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon. ttatlt.

Jodge Boise set the time for sentencing the piiaonor for Wednesday at 1 p. m. It bu indefinitely postponed. Monday morning, probably about twe o'clock, Saunders accompanied by Jamison, imprisoned for illegal voting, crawled through a bote ia the rear of tbe corridor, which tbey made by pry ing tbe brick out, having previously sawed several iron bars nearly off, and bad a change of enue on their own account. Tbe ceil door was opeaed nt cutting off a wooden and a lead peg, which Saunders bad substituted lor tbe iron ones during tbe recent ghost manifestations Sheriff Cbsrlton bad sat up all night Saturday nigh', and until 11 o'clock Sunday night when he lay down for a few moments and slept til! morning, lie bad tried to obtain a guard, and bad solicited tbe County Court to furnish one, so be cannot be accused of not having done bis duty The desperate character of the prisoner was folly appreciated. Where Saun ders went is not knswn. He was seen to cross the river witb two otler m?r about 2 o'eiock in tbe morning, one of tbe men returning with the boat. H was also seen 8 miles beyond Lebanon witb another man in a doe cart, near Millers by others and at Spring Hill by enother. Whether be wee seen et all is a matter of speculation.
