Charles Cufton - I was taken from my masters stable door to opposite

the Clarence - I heard a voice cry bring him along I was then brought

near to the spot where the prisoner was standing - I was brought sufficiently

person who told the mob to take care of me - there was open day light -

when we met the man with the walletts on his back - there was sufficient

light to enable me to distinguish every object about - The prisoner is the

person who said take the man - I saw the prisoner with the mob at the time

that I made my escape - I know the prisoner from his Coat - he had the

same then on that he now has on -
