(From the Mencton Tinves. ) THE McCARTHY WURDER,

| wi 'Verbatim Report of the Evidence at the Inquest.

AFTERNOON SESSION.

Prisoners arrived some time in advance of Annie Parker, who having been brought in by the Deputy Sheriff resumed :-

The wagon in which the body was taken away was a light express wagon; the box was 6 or 7 inches high. 1 never saw it be- fore that L remember. After the body was put in the wagon, Harry asked me to go with him. I said no, that | wouldn't go. Nothing more was said. He then went away. Ican’t say where he was geing. I did not hear his mother or Eliza tell him where to go. He drove away alone. ‘The bedy continued to bleed while being taken from the bar to the wagon, The blood dropped along the hall as the body was er ied. I don’t know whether if bled in the wagon. LEliza and Mrs. Osborne went into the sitting room and waited until Harry came back. 1 stood in the front door till he came back. I heard nething said while he was away. They could not

be yery sober after drmking as much as

they had. Uarry was gone about half an hour. t den’t know exactly what hour he

returned. When he came back he went and put his horse in the barn, then caine in the house where Elizaand Mrs. Osborne still were. I then asked him where he pat the body, and he said abont-a mile above the Scadove Bridge. I asked him how he got him out of the wagon. He told ine that Le put two poles at the back of the wagon and rolled him down on them in the river. I didn’t hear his mother or Eliza ask him anything. I heard nothing more said after that. I then went up-stairs and stayed about an hour. I sat down on my bed; did not get in bed. There was no one with me. Ithen came down stairs, lit a lamp and washed blood off all the boards. Mrs. Osborne called me down and told me todo it. They had ail been sitiing in the front-room. I washed with warm water— washed against the side of the counter where the bloed fiew. There were a good many blood-spots on the side of the coun- ter. There was a good lot of biood seatter- ed about the floor ot the bar-room: not a great deal of blood in the hall; most blood on the door between the hal! and bar-room where they stopped to turn him. When he fell his feet were towards the hall-door. When takinghim outthey turned himaround so that his head went out first. They told me to wash all the blood up. I can’t say exactly what time, but it was about 5 or 6 o'clock. Mrs. Osborne, Eliza and Harry did not go to bed that might. They gave no further orders after I washed the blood up, I did not notice whether or not the overcoat and rubber coat were still hanging in the hall. After that I got breakfast ready. No strangers took break- fast there that morning. The first I saw-of Dr. Campbell that day (13th Oct.) was when I rang the bell and he came and took din- ner. He was the only one besides the family that took dinner there that day. Nothing was said about Timothy McCarthy that day. I had scrubbed *the bar-room once before—about two days after -I firat came to live with them. I can’t say whether or not Dr. Campbell was in the house that night. He told me about 10 o'clock, ora little after McCarthy had gone, that he was to stop all night at Point Du Chene. While McCarthy was in there the first time, Camp- bell was in the kitchen. He went out that night after telling me he was going to go to Point Du Chene. I did not see him again till next day. I don’t mind seeing wagon again. Osbornes had a_ kind of reddish- black horse. It positively was with this horse that they took the body away. I can’t say if it was their own wagon they took body in. I don’t know. Anthony White of Buctouche. 1 know there was a man there that week with an express wagon containing 2 or 3 barrels. I can’t tell what day he came there. I don’t know. when this wagon was taken away. I don’t know whether it was taken away before or after the 12th Oct. I don’t know that this was the wagon in which Harry took the body way. When Harry took the body away it had cleared off and was not raining, nor was it raining when he returned. The next day (13th Oct.) it was storming.

In the forenoon of Saturday 1 missed both overcoats from the hall. I saw that over- coat six or seven days afterwards upstairs in the clothes press of the room in which Mr. Osborne was sick. I neyer felt the pockets of this coat, nor did ever see anyone else feel in the pockets of the coat. I neversaw \icCarthy with a revolver. I saw this over- coat several times afterwards. I saw Mrs. Osborne show it to Mr. Osborne after he got well. She said it was Timothy Me- Carthy’s coat, and he tried to put it on, but was too weak and could not stand up. The first time he got up was about a week after- wards. When Mrs. Osborne showed Mr. Osborne the coat he asked her if I knew about it, and she said, ‘‘Yes, she knows all about it.” He asked her, ‘‘Are’nt you frightened she'll tell!’ She said, ‘‘No; she'll always stay with us. She took her oath on the Bible she’d never tell.” He asked, ‘“‘Did she take any of the money?” She said, *‘No; she would not take any.” | Nothing more was said at that time. She ‘then hung the coat in the clothes press. I i again saw this coat when she took it down stairs one morning for Mr. Osborne, who was going to put it on to go to Moncton, After he put it on Mrs, Osborne said,

21, 1878,

‘not a tall man.

‘ran down one side of his.throat.

NO, 302

‘Don't you wear it now; everybody will know.” He did not wear it. Eliza said she would fix the sleeves, which were too long. Iknow that Eliza put some black tape on the sleeves; that’s all T know was done to it.

I never saw Osborne wear the coat after- wards, I did not see that coat cut. It waa about three weeks after the 12th of October that I saw the coat with the black tape on it.

McCarthy had rubber leggings and a ru - ber hood on at 10 o’clock, but had no hood on when he came in at 12. I did not notice

leggings. I never saw any of the money afterwards. I never heard them say how much money there was. I was at the

Waverley House two montis after the 12th Oct. I never heard them speak about it afterwards, but they told me to hold my tongue and not to speak about it. T was never shown where the body was put in the water.

(The overcoat and rubber coat which were found on the body were: shown to witness. )

That is the rubber coat he wore that night; that’s the overcoat. I saw Osberne try iton. Jt is the coat MeCarthy wore on the 12th Oct. (The coat havimg ho binding, she was asked where the sleeves were bound, whereupon she pointed oat certain parts of sleeve cuff.) The tape was about 1 inch wide.

I went up the bridge the next Saturday. Will Wellington was with me. I founda wagon track in the potato field behind Atkinson’s barn. I followed this track to the river. I know this to be the place whére MeCarthy was put in by what sdesty toldme. Harry cidn’ttellme he went through a potatoe field, but he did say that it was this side of the railway bridge. The tide was low and Isaw the wagon track in the sand. Ididn’t see whether the wagon turned or not, but I saw that the wagon had been turned on the bank and backed down to the river. The wagon tracks were clear down to the water. This was 5 or4 o'clock in the afternoon. This is the only time [went up there after the murder. Harry was up to the railway bridge the next Sunday after the deed was done. “1 don’t know of Osborne or Harry beimg up to the place where the -body was put im. (Hatchet shown to witness.) The handle was longer and not so big as that one. [ can’t say that is the hatchet that was used. After I left Osbornes the last time, I went to Moncton, and hved a few days with Jim Blair. After that 1 lived with Edward Me- Carthy, who came after me, for abouta month; after that I lived with Marshal Steadman, then was detained at Hampten until I came here to give evidence.

Cross-exaiined by Mr. Holstead : I came from Dalahousie. I lived at Moffett’s there 2 or 3 years. I left there because I wanted to. They never charged mie with stealing anything. I went from Moffait’s to Gor- den’s, in Campbellton, where I lived for about ten months; no charge of stealing

there. I left becanae the work was tee hard. J ‘lived with Mr. Dick abont-a month.

I left there because she was cross and I Was cross, and two crosses didn’t agree very well together. She didn’t charge me with stealing. I next lired with Job McLeod, and left there because they used to drink and fight night and day; that was too much; no charge of stealing inade against me there.

(Mr. Halstead here explained that he did not mean a legal charge. )

I understand what you mean, my head ain’t made like a rabbit. I next lived with Osborne. They called me a thief and a rogue because I wouldn't live in the woods with them. I next lived with Jones about 4 miles west of Moncton. I am as certain that it is 4 miles as that I saw Harry strike McCarthy with the hatchet. Mr. McCarthy was in the front room talking to Eliza and the folding doors were open about 10 inches. The conversation between thei lasted about an hour.

It took ime an hour to scrub the floor. I didn’t scrub all the time. I heard about all that was said. They spoke loud. While I was scrubbing in the corner I heard Me- Carthy say he'd take his horse to the Is- land. I got up and asked them what they were saying. When McCarthy said at 10 o'clock that he was coming back, I was just done scrubbing and in the dining room. He must have said that to me or Harry, who was in the bar-room. I wanted to know what time I got done scrubbing and looked at the clock ; that’s the way I knew what time McCarthy went out. Fraser is He is about 22 or 23 years old. He is not in Moncton now. I never asked him what he worked at. I saw him here on 12th Oct., and he said he would be in that night. I don’t where he is now. I saw him on the street near the hay scales about 2 or 3 o’elock in the afternoon of the 12th. Iam pesitive that, after the body was put in the wagon that night, that these two coats were hanging up. in the hall. When McCarthy fellin the bar-room I did not look behind his ear. I didn’t touch him. There would be blood smeared all over his hair pulling him around. Blood The hat was pressed down over his head. I never drank much. I take a -little ; neyer get drunk. I don’t like gentlemen very much. Mrs. Osborne said, that night in the sitting room, after McCarthy went, to Eliza that she twas going to drug McCarthy to . get some money ; she hadn't enough money yet and Mr. Osborne was sick. She said. she would give him a little powder to drug him aud get his money, but she didn’t want to kill him. Iwas there when she said this, but said nothing. I didn’t have anything
