I then immediate fixed on the following Monday to receive the testimony of the parties themselves, in order to furnish you, with all the [[strikethrough]]possible[[/strikethrough]] facts in the case. The following is their sworn statements. Alfred Huggins - I was at the shop in June or July and Bain asked me what I was doing and said that I had better be in my tobacco- I told him I would have his horse on Monday. He said I will show you- I said, I would show him. He told me then "D--n you dry up!" Afterward I was in one of his apple trees, when they were first beginning to get ripe, and he ordered me down- I immediately obeyed his order. Afterward my wife was charged with stealing Mrs. Bain's underskirt, with one or two other items. On the night of the difficulty - I took a load of wood to Mr Bain's house, afterward stopped with Robert Jones, by whom I was employed. He was eating apples, and said he was eating his supper, and asked me if I was going to get mine. I then went into the orchard, and with a pole, commenced knocking down a few apples.
Transcription Notes:
The writer's capital Bs and Rs look similar, but in reviewing all pages of this document it appears the last name is Bain and not Rain.
