Klmo wns charged with shooting cnrolessly nnd hnstlly nnd the de cerned wns blnmed for wearing clothes too nearly resembling lti color n deer's hide. Hunters llmlly Itntllctl. The evidence brought out tho fact that Klmo and his companions had become badly rnttlcd after tho shoot lug and after leaving tho body some time about nine o'clock In the morn ing they wero unnblo to direct WlU llnm Hlghain, brother ot the do- deceased and Mr. Sky-man, who camo out to remove tho body, to tho place where- they hnd left It, and as a re sult tho body was not found until C o'clock by Mr. Skyrmnn and was over a quarter of a mile from whero Walters nnd Quackenbush, Kluio's companions, wcro making a search. Kxtrcmo Carelessness AVm. nigham, who is thoroughly familiar with the lay ot the ground, testified that his brother met his death in nn open glado nnd that Klnic's tracks as ho camo to the body show that ho stood on tho sldo ot a rldgo whero tho vlow was unob structed by timber or brush and could not exceed a dlstanco of 125 yards. Wilbur Klmo was visibly affected while on tho stand but was not con fused as to details, direction or loca tion ot tho spot whero tho shooting occurred as outlined on a map I sketched by William nigham. MNlaken for Deer He testified to having tired three shots at a bunch ot deer shortly af ter separating from tho deceased at tho outset and then trying to cross tho rldgo In an endeavor to head the deer back Into an old burn. Some 15 minutes later whon ho had re turned to tho burnt side of tho ridge be mistook tho deceased tor a deer nnd fired the fatal shot. As Dig ham fell his little black dog Jumped upon tho body, then ho realized he had sh6t a man. Hurrying to the spot he discovered Gcorgo IJIgbam mortally wounded, and then fired two shots In rapid succession which by arrangement was a signal of dis tress to his companions. According to Klmo It took him fully flvo onin utes to reach tho body after tho fatal shot so that thero was an Interval of at least flvo minutes between the shot that killed Ulgham and tho two signal shots. Il.siTCvciicy Shown Tho testimony ot Quackenbush and Walters show a wldo discrepancy in this particular, both claim that alt thrco shots wero closo together and not separated by a greater interval than flvo seconds, which in about ten minutes was followed by Kline's cries for help. Another feature brought out In tho tcstlyiony was that whilo Klmo was sonic luO feet higher than tho deceased when tho fatal shot was firod, tho bullet upon entering thu back took a decided course upwards.
