Question : Have ypu not heard Moore
make repeated threats against Swepson's
life during the last three years t .
The State objected to. the- mM&foj n
Here the question of admissibility of
uneommunioated ' threats to show the '
state of feeling of - the deoaased toward
the prisoner, and the admissibility of
- evidence of the character Jf thej deceased
for violence, were discussed. The Oourt
ruled that evidence of the violence of
the character of the deceased was prop-
erly admissible under the circumstances
of this ease; but preferred that the" &V
fence lay a foundation for the introduc
tion j of i nnobmmnnieated threats, by
giving in evidence , the communicated
threats. ' The defence ihen withdrew
; their question for the preeent. 'wrth leave
to open the case upon this point after

David- McDufley, 'teatitted-ea fol

county. I made an actual surrey ; took

distances. I used a compass, chain and
level I took the .actual measurement
of the house and rooms. The survey is
as accurate as I can make it ' Here two
plats; were shown one of them showing
Swepson's house and grounds, the other
showing the same, with the addition of
theaeloe included' between the railroad
and the public road, from the river to
near Baker's ; and the various points
and lines on them described and ex
plained by the witness. I took the Haw

ItuY. McAden a witness for the
vosecution, was called and examined
live in Charlotte, I lived .formerly ia
Alanmncfe bounty f was raiaod is
Caswell county. ' Swepson married my
aunt I have known A. G. Moore
from boyhood.. We were raised in the
same county. I knew Moore's general
character. He was ' high-tempered,
-violent, dangerous and desperate mas,
and when under the influence of passion,
or whiskey he was more like a crazy
man than anythiag else. He was what
is usually denominated a bully. Moore's
character has been as I bare described
it ever since the war, . I knew- nothing
against him of thla character as a boy.
I should say Moore was about 35 years
ol4ill don't know his age ; between
30 and 40 though I should' say. "He
lived In Rockingham before 1 the ' war.

e prisoner age 1s between 50 sad
CO, about 67 I think. , I was at Ala
mance court shortly fter a postal card
was sent out in the mails. The card
purported to be from one Mary liivens.
I dwt recollect exactly the- date, and
can only ssy I think it was at August
coort or 1874. Oa Tuesday of ' court;
as I was" gofuj- from the court-bous
toy room at pie hotel, Moore met me
auddterths usual ealataUoaa, he told
me he wasted to see me on some very
Important business; I' asked him
dj room.-1 WS' went Into the room.
Moore closed and locked the door, t He
asked me If I bad seen the - card - that
had been issued through the mail, V
tacking bis character. I teld him I &'J&
and that I thought It WIS a greatM;U
raze. ' He said he knew who raatha
author of the card ; that It was George"
W. Swepson ; that he knew where
Swepson was at - that time t that he,
Moore, had a detective travelling with
Swepson that Swepson had been ex
pected home on the day before,' or on
that day v but that ho would not' be
home until next day J that he bad writ
ten testimony connecting Swepson with
the card ; thitttwepsoa was at the bot
tom of it . without a doubt U then
then pulled off his coat and showed ne
two pistols, ' I look tbem to be Colt's
nary pistols, In the reaf pockets of bis
pant. . Ha said that he had armed him
self to kill Swepson and was going td
do it; called. Swepson a "damned
thief, ooward,and scoundreL; tie said
be wanted tne to tertSwepsoov waatr li'e
hsd told mo ; that be, 'Moore, " was a
brart man and be did not want to kill
an unarmed man, and he wanted Swep
son to know vast ne, MOortiwnS going
to kui mm, in order mat ne, bwepsou,
might prepare himself After he had
abused Swepson for some time, I stop
ped him ana told.him not say anything
more ibouthlmxthatif he did I should
take It as personal to myself; that be
knew my relatione with Swepson,' and
that I could not allow him to - say any
thing more abont him.aud that if he did
it would break up all friendly relatione
between myself and him, Swepson.
He, Moore, promptly "disclaimed' any
Intention of being personal to me, . but
paitl be and Swepson eould not live
under the same sun. He told me to tell
him that he, Moore, Intended to kill him.
Abont the written evidence, be said he
had written evidence to convict Swep
aon of jrettinjr out the card and palled
out a lot of papers to show it to me, bat
aiter Tanning tham over tn bis bands
e declined to show them to me.' "saying
was afraid I would ibetrar hiou He
said be bad notes from Swepaon to bis
factory girls, showing that he, Swepaon,
had been trying to sednoe and corrupt
them, and that he- intended to expose
him in the public prints. '. I expostulated
witn turn, and told bun that if be were
to kill Swepson he wonld be hung fat it
He said "no," that when in Greensboro
a few days before as peaceable a man as
old man Jesse Lindsay, bad remarked
that no jury would hang a man for killing
the-uthor-cf tnat card.lnls- is the
substance of the conversation so far as I
can recollect I don't , asy . that it was
the exact words, but ' as near as I oan
recollect I communicated this to Swep
son ; told it to him more particularly,
if anything . than I bare told it here
beoeuae.it was fresh ia my memory then.
I told it to Hwepson ma very abort time.
As soon as Court adjourned I went down
to Swepson's and spent a day and then it
waa that told him. , I don't recollect
having, any farther conversation with
Moore about this matter. ' I told Swep
son that Moore bad requested me to tell
him be was going to kUl him. , .,
VrOit-examinedl don't think-1 ever
had any further conversation with Moore,
Uneetum: Didn't you say in urattam.
before the magistrates, that, yon talked
with Moore the next day about this same
thing? ; Mi. 1 . .:.! -v...-
Answer : Binoe yon remlad me. I do
remember that-Mooe-eoHght me next
daw and went over very neariv the same
oonveraation only that he. waa much
more quiet He waa not near so violent
M he bad been on the day before. When
I said X never had any further talk with
Moore about this matter,, I meant I
never talked with him after that Court
inAlamanee about this matter. One of
the postal cards was here ahown the wit
ness and be was asked if this was not of
the same kind as he himself badTeoeived,
The question was objected to by the
defence, Swepson not having been shown
tot have been connected with ' the card.
The card ahown here ia of the same na
ture with the one I received. I cant
say that this isaooov. I don't think
the contents of the card were mentioned
daring the eon venation. The threats I
have mentioned in immediate connection
with the averment he was then making, '
that Swepson was the author of the card.
I don't reoolleot that Mary Bivens -was
named, r I think Moort's character was
that of s bully: He had the character,
when not under excitement, of being a
free-handed 1Lopen-hearted gentleman
He was a man of desperate courage. He
made no threats against aay one at that
time bat' Swepson. 'I denounced the
card because of its character. I thought
it was an outrage. I cannot recollect all
the names Moore called Swepson. He
called him) a thief, scoundrel, and a
coward.
Rtdirtd1 never had any conversa
tion with Moore concerning this matter
after I had detailed his threats to Swep
son. - Moore said he had i the notes
Swepaon had sent to his factory girls,
and had evidence connecting -him wita
the card. He threatened to publish the
notes in the public prints of the conn try,
and it was about both the notes and the
card that be waa arjrrr. -
X. A. Mebane was called and testified;
I live at Mebaneville, N. G ; have heard
Moore make threats against Swepson. I
. was at Holt' .A Moore's, store... at ' Haw
Hirer in "November, 1872j and ik a con
versation with, Moore he Mid he intend
ed to kill owepson and all suon damned
rascals. X went there with an English
man to whom I had sold some land. We
were ent bweting-Bome weed wheat
told Moors) that Creswell, the liiglish
man, was much pleased with Swepson's
houae on the hill. Moore sahl that if it
was toot for , snch damned, rascals as
Swepson ' we would have a great many
snail men as.Qreswel) among us, and that
be was going to kul bun, Swepson, and
all such damned rasoala. v I told this to
my brother, CI Mebane, not long after
wards.
Crw-He This was four years
ago. I didai say at Graham that Moore
said lie was going to kill out ail sacli
damned ' rascals as "Swepson.-:-1 said
Moore said he intended to kill Swepson
and all such damned rasoala. . . -.
, Cornelius Mebane called and examin
ed: I am D. A. Mebane's brother. My
brother communicated the. ULreataiiehad
heard Moore make against Swepaon in
the latter part of 1874. : He told me that
be and an Engliahman.named Creswell,
were , together at Haw liiver and that
Moore waa asking him who Creswell was.
and that when he told him that Creswell
was much pleased with Swepson's place
np on the bill, at Haw River, Moore said
that if it were not for each damned ras
cals as Swepson we would have a great
many men as Creswell - among1 ns, and
that he intended to kill all snob damned
rascals. , I was at Swepson's Haw ltiver
plaoe the day after the shooting.- The
ground was soft I examined the tracks
around Swepson's bouse. .The tracks
were those of a grown man and two boys.
1 could ace where they got over the fenoe
and I followed them round. I saw where
they got -over. the second fence ; where
present iwhea ', Mr.. MoDufue made bis
survey and went1 with him. The line
marked A. B. C. D. . P. on MoDufGe's
map represents the route Moore; took
around Swepson's house. 1 lam super-

fnntending is of tne same class as Holt
Moore's. Before taking charge or the
factory, I was in Swepson s employment
in Western North Carolina; had charge
Of some lands of his there; renting them
and collecting the rents. . It waa wet
enough for a man to leave a track. I
Will not aay that it waa muddy. , The
Eiund was soft enough) for a man to
ve dirt on the ienoe. I saw where
they got pver the fenoe; there was every
indication that men got over there; the
dirt was on the rails and the tracks led
away from the fenoe on the other side.
There may have been bunches of sage
in the field there." It was not a broom
sage field, i It might have been cultiva
ted the year before. I cannot say. that
the land had not been cultivated the
year before. There was not a great deal
of grass in the field. I could track them
all the way, Sometimes we wonld lose
the track, but after looking round a little
we could find it again. I was not asked
anything abont the tracks on my exam
ination before the magistrates. I think
I told CoL Fuller about how the tracks
were before my examination. , I marked
the fence where Moore got over with the
letter M. There were some natural
points -to guide us, besides the places
where they got over the fenoe. 1 don't
know that I told or didn't tell McDnffie
that the line cut off two trees next to the
bouse. I showed MoDuffie the line and
hemoasaredit Richard Jtutt was with
me when I followed the tracks around.
I made no marks except the notches on
the fence. WhatI have repeated as
what D. A. Mebane told me is the sub
stance of what he said; it was something
to that amount I told Swepson in the
latter part of 1872, or in the early part of
1873. I told him the first time I saw
him. I -was some fifty miles away from
Swepson when it was told me. I didnt
till I cams down bete and told
Swepaon about7theTtbreats.-iI --came
down on other business. I told him fur
the reason that one brother would tell
another of a threat be had heard against
his life. Swepson is not my brother;
he is a very particular friend. . , , ,
Bedirttt I made the marks and fol
lowed the tracks at the instance of CoL
Fullor on the next day after thejB.hxit
ing. I was enabled to remember the
line over which I had followed the
tracks by my general knowledge of the
ground. '"' .T "..".,... .'
A. Murray was eaTlea and examined :
I live in Alamance county ; have known
Mpore eight or ten years. I ' was at
Greensboro in 1874 at the time of
the . difficulty Moore had there with
Green. I talked with Moore about
Swepson then. I told Swepson what
passed between as. After Moore's dif
ficulty with Green, I approached Moore
and told him be ought not to have
scared that poor fellow Green so toadly.
Hs laughed and said he had only scared
the son of a bitch and pulled his -ears ;
that that was all be wanted with him ;
that he was not the man he was after ;
that Swepson was the man he was after;
Green was only Swepson's tool, and that
if he (Moore) had been let alone he
would have fixed him (Swepson) there
in that room ; that be waa bound to keep
the peace now, but would not be bound
always, and he would get him yet I
told Swepson next time I saw him. I
don't know long it was, I know Moore's
character for a violent man. when he
he didn't like a man. He had the repu
tation of being a very violent man.
Cmt'txamintd.- The . Greensboro
difficulty was In September 1874, after
the card bad been published. I was
there as a witness in the suits against
Green. I told him he had scared Green
pretty bad. He said Green was not the
man ho was after; that Swepson Was
the culltr man. " He said he would have
revenge yet, or. would get tiitarf l dm
think Moore mentioned the . card that
day. lie did not say he was mad about
the Dostal card that day' I had beard
him talk about the eard before. Moore
bad not cursed me to my face thatyear
I had heard of his cursing me, but be
afterwards apologized to me. We were
friendly after that. 'I don't know what
room Moore had referred to the room
at the hotel I suppose. . I saw Swepson
la the room afterward... .1 don't know
whether that was the room be stayed in
or not - - ' --f-'-i ' ' "':
: ; W. & lUoisay was called and exam-
hied. I lire ia Haltimore t am a sales
men for a irrocery bouse. I was at Haw
River on the day of the shooting. ; I
went down on the train from Graham
about 12 m. I went front the train Into
Holt & Moore's store. I asked the
clerk for A. Q. Moore. He said he was
St home, over at the office, be suDDoeed.
IctVtay baggage, in the store and went
over to the ouice. I found an old gen
Ueraan there. He said Moore had gone
hunting. I stayed there about an hour
and. a-haUV as well as I can remember,
I then went' to the depot," thinking it
was about train time, and was standing
near the water-tank. When I heard loud
cursing In the direction of Swepson s.
I stood there Ave or ten minutes. I
saw Moore coming down the road
with two dogs. I recognised him when
he got within about one hundred yards
of me. He asked me what in the hell
was f doing there, i ' told him just
bruising round, trying to sell sums
goods.!. He said be had just been np
there trying to kijl a damned rascal.
I asked him whom he referred to. He
answered - "George Swepson." , I
reasoned with him and told him he bad
I ftllU iUlil 111 111 419 Illtti 1
,ttfdtTJsllia
killed SwepHou ft would give him great
trouble ; that be would never get over
it. He said be had dared nun to snow
himself from behind the brick walls.
When I first saw him he was about half
way between the depot and Swepson's.
I heard the. noise before- I saw him.
He" wis " curslfigTfoudly-t-cnuld Hnot
tell what word ; lie-iid,luT" lt:wiis
curslngr: He said be had dared hinr to
put his head out from behind his brick
walls, and when I expostulated with
him, be told roe" I did not know what
he knew. This was all the talk we
bad. as near as I can recollect He
v-Hed then overdo hir officer-"!
Id him J did not have-time, but. he
Insisted and told me he had some Jerry
Bolt whUky and wanted me to go over
aud take a drink with him. 1 went
over, and Moore, Jerry Holt and I all
took a drink ' together. I then went
back to the depot and took the train
and went to High Point,. I stayed
with Jarrell there. I told Jarrell about
what I had ' heard Moore say before
I heard!'- of ilhahooUrjgiI
told him about what I have
told here, as near as I can reoolleot. I
don't remember the words I used, but I
told it about as I have told it here. I
then came back to Greensboro, and
from Greensboro to Retdsville. I am a
native of Chatham county ; was born in
Pittsboro : my fatber s name was Joseph
Bamssv. This was the only family of
Bamaajs in that region that I know of.
Uro$i-txamtned.-l said .Moore told
me he had diired Swepson to show him-
sclt Irom behind the brick walls. He
told me nothing more than I have told
here to-day. 1 dhr Out eat dinner with
Moore. 1 did notstayin bis office more
than five minutes after be came,
i Question. Was that all Moore said;
that he had dared Swcpeon to show
himself? ' -' k ,
Answer. lie said, as I have stated,
that he bad dared him to show himself
from behind the brick walls. There was
no one with Moore when' he came to
the tank where I was, except the two
dog. I think I mentioned the matter
to Win. McAdoo, in' Greensboro, the
next da j. I was not' examined beforti
tbe mauUtrates in Graham. ' Kever
communicated these threats to Swep
sou. Whtn flrat notified to attend as a

McAdoo. I told it to McAdoo after!
beard of the shooting.

oa the train coming down here and told
me he had understood I knew something
abont this case and wanted me to tell
what I knew. 1 The day I went to Haw
