ner the said James Allen came to his death.
We, the said jury, so formed as aforesaid,
make and return tbe following presentment#
in reference to the aforesaid matters and
tiling, concerning which we were sworn to
inquire by the said Allen Powell,
coroner. We, the jary aforesaid,
upon our oath*, say that John Williams, a#
principal, and Wade Parwiey and Kvander
jeott, as accessories, did on the 10th day of
October, 1883, in said county, unlawfully, ami
with malice aforethought, kill the .**1(1 Janie*
