Shanandoah S.S.
Salenia Jackson (col) being duly sworn says I was out with Mary Lee the night of the bonfire which was Monday night. I saw three young men start from the bonfire and I followed, when they got to Geo. H Otts house Hugh Ott handed Geo Knisley an ax and the party ran towards the flag pole I saw nothing more until they returned with the pole on their shoulders which they threw on the fire when they got to it. Mary Lee ran ahead of me and followed the party along.
