SMUTTYNOSE MURDER TRIAL (continued)
Question: Go on, what else took place?
Answer: And he turned around again, and when Anethe saw him coming from the corner of the house, back again with a big axe, she halooed out, Louis Louis, again, good many times she halooed out, Louis, till he struck her. He struck her with a great big axe.
Question: Did you see what part of her person the blow took effect?
Answer: He hit her on the head. He struck her once, and she fell down. After she fell down he struck her twice.
Question: Well.
Answer: And back he went on the corner again, and I jumped out, and told my sister to come, but she said, I am so tired I can't go.
Question: Which sister was that?
Answer: Karen. I told Karen to come; she said, I am so tired I can't.
Question: You jumped out where?
Answer: Out through may bed-room window, and I ran down to the hen-house where I had my hens, and opened the door and thought of hiding away in the cellar. I saw the little dog coming, and I was afraid to hide away there because he would look around, and I was afraid to the dog would bark, and out I went again. I thought I would run down to the landing-place and see if he had his dory there, and I would take the dory and draw to some island. I looked down the dock, but I did not find any boat there, so I went around. I got a little ways out from the house and I saw he had a light in the house.
Question: Go on, and state what you saw or heard.
Answer: He had hauled the window curtains down too. I did not haul them down, but he had them hauled down before I got into the kitchen. I forgot to state that. I went down on the island, ran a little ways, and heard my sister haloo again. I heard her so plain I thought she was outside of the house. I ran to find rocks to hid myself away underneath the rocks on the island.
Question: How long did you remain there among the rocks?
Answer: The moon was most down, and I staid till after sunrise, about half an hour after sunrise.
Question: Had you an axe on the island?
Answer: Yes, I had that axe few days before, cutting ice in the well, and I left the axe right out by my door, standing up alongside of the door. I had known Wagner for a year and a half, about. He boarded seven months with me last summer; came last spring.
Question: When did he leave, get through boarding with you?
Answer: He went into Portsmouth about November.
Question: What room did he occupy at your house?
Answer: He had the easterly end of the house, he had a big room there.
Question: Where did he keep his cloths?
Answer: He kept his cloths in a little bed-room there hanging up. He had oil skin hanging up in my entry, when he had been out fishing, he took his oil skin off and hung it up in the entry, entry coming into my kitchen.
Question: Entry in your part?
Answer: Yes.
Question: From what room in your part did stairs go up chamber?
Answer: We go right in the entry, and go right up-stairs. When he was going out, and took his old pants off, he used to open the entry door, and only two steps up-stairs, and hung his oil pants and oil jacket on the wall.
Question: What was in the kitchen which he occupied as his room?
Answer: He had his bed there, and one big trunk, which belonged to my sister Karen.
Question: Do you know what was in that trunk?
Answer: She had cloths, some she wore in the winter time, and she put them in the trunk in the summer, and summer cloths she did not use she put in the trunk, and she had a feather-bed that she had at the time she came over in the steamer.
Question: Was that in the trunk?
Answer: Yes, the bed was in the trunk, the big chest.
Question: While he boarded with you, was Karen a member of your family?
Answer: She came out visiting me some days.
Question: Did she sleep there?
Answer: No sir.
