was attention riveted on him when he
took a revolver and impersonated the
position of Carmack, with General Me-
tfarn representing witness.
At the conclusion of Robin Cooper's
cross-examination. John D. Sharp, who
Is Jointly Indicted with th© Coopers,
took the stand, and his examlnatlon-In-
chlof was In progress when court ad
journed for the noon recess, from 12:30
to 2 p. m.
Sharp gave a version of the killing
that was Identical with that of Robin
Cooper. He sabl he »a\v the killing
from the corner: that he did not go
down there or follow th© Coopers, be
cause he got to thinking the meeting
the Coopers and Carmack might be ;i
serious affair. He swore Carmack drew
Ills weapon first and fired twice, first at
Robin Cooper, who had Jumped be
tween Colonel Cooper and Cartnnck.
Robin then circled the posts nnd fired
three times at Carmack. Carmack then
fell Into the gutter.
He denied that he went to the corner
with tht Coopers by prearrangement,
but said Colonel Cooper asked him t->
walk up to the governor's mansion with
him, nnd thnt was why he was accom
panying the cojonel.
Ran a Pardon Mill?
Much significance Is being attached
to a question asked Robin Cooper this
morning relative to n pardon he secured
for a man named Linder, and for which
young Cooper admitted he got $700.
Gossip Is to the effect that Carmack
was going to attack Colonel Cooper
thru his paper for the alleged running
e* a pardon mill. 1
