The witness said Henrionnet ap- peared cool. Rust Sees Shooting. . Andrew Rust said he was coming east on Third street and when near Gill’s store he saw Henrionnet -and Nelgon approaching the entrance to the stairway of the Northern Nation- al bank from the east. As they neared the entrance, Mr. Rust said, they stopped and he noticed Nelson bow. Nelson was laughing at the time, testified the witness. He saw them enter the stairway and when he got close to the entrance he saw Nelson emerge, closely followed by Henrionnet, the latter holding a re- at Nelson. He also said the gun was held close to Neison. Nelson Hard Hit. As the revolver barked, Rust said Then Henrionnet took an- The witness said that Henrionnet then threw down the revolver, utter- ing an oath as he did. He said that .was the last he saw of Nelson. Mr. Rust said he had known: Nel- time Henrionnet conducted a jewelry Mr. Rust saw Chief of Police Rip- custody didn’t speak to him then. At-the testified, why he had shot Nelson. "Lots of Cause,” Says Slaver. “Lots of cause,”” was the answer of Henrionnet, says Mr. Rust. “He asked me if Nelson was dead,” continued Mr. Rust, “and I told him not yet.” George Kruger, machine operator at the Rex theater, happened along at that time and picked up the re- volver which was turned over to Chief Ripple. Kruger had been in Bemidji only about three months at the time of the shooting and was unacquainted with either Henrionnet or Nelson. He was close to the scene of the tragedy on his way to the Rex when he heard three shots. He quickened his pace and had reached the bank building stairway entrance when out rushed Nelson, with Henrionnet af- ter him. Saw Henrionnet carrying revolver, and he identified the gun carried . as closely resembling the one shown him by the state’s attor- ney, being the weapon in evidence. Saw Shot Fired. Mr. Kruger also saw Henrionnet fire a bullet at Nelson and then throw the gun to the walk. He said he heard Henrionnet utter an oath when he discarded the revolver. Then, he, testified, Henrionnet thrust his hands into his trouser pockets and walked into the bank. Nelson then came out of the bank, continued Mr. Kruger, and went up- stairs, There was blood on his clothing near the shoulder. Then Mr. Kruger picked up the revolver from the walk against the building and pocketed it until Chief Ripple arrived. In Surgeon’s Office. When Nelson emerged from the bank he went up the stairs of the Northern National to the offices of Drs. Gilmore & McCann, where Dr. Gilmore gave temporary attention preparing Nelson for taking to the hospital. The upper portion of Nel- son’s clothing was removed and a hurried examination disclosed a bul- let wound in the back of the neck, another wound in the right wrist and a third in the abdomen. Nelson was then rushed to the hospital. A thorough examination. of the wounded young man showed that while the wounds in the neck and wrist were not serious and gave lit- tle concern, yet the wound in the abdomen was another matter. The Fatal Bullet. - The bullet which proved to be the death of Nelson struck as follows, according to Dr. Gilmore, address- ing the jury: Place one finger on the outermost point of the right hip and draw an imaginary line to the navel, select the center of the line and drop the finger to a point about four inches below the center of the line, That was where the bullet enter- ed and lodged against the hip bone in the back, tearing the intestines as it. ploughed its path.

NORMAL CLASS PAYS of 'the death. Z i / Three Bullets Found. In the autopsy performed, two hul-}/ lets were found in Nelson’s body, ":fi one that pierced the abdomen al the one that struck him in the wrist. 'Both bullets were introduced in evidence and identified by Gilmore.. Another of the bullets was discovered on the table, which came there was no other wound to cause death except the one in'the abdomen that the other two wepe not fatal and' that there was nothing else to cause death. The “Handkerchief” Mentioned. William Chichester testified that at the time of the shooting he was asked by Chief Ripple-to secure an auto to convey the: prisoner to jail. Mr. Chichester said he did so and they first took Henrionnet to the Markham for something about a handkerchief. Palmer Scents Robbery. Dr. G. M. Palmer, whose dental office is on the same floor as the re- cruiting oftice, which is alleged to have been the objective of Henrion- net with Nelson in tow, heard the shots fired in the stairway and went out to see what the occasion was. He proceeded to the top of the stair- way and descended, the idea of a bank robbery being uppermost in his mind. He walked around the cor- ner and looked up Beltrami avenue but saw nothing, and then looked through the bank window where he saw Henrionnet seated in President White's office, George Rhea, assist- ant cashier, and ‘Corporal Clarence Foucault also being present. “Personal Affair.” He said he noticed a revolver on the desk of W. L. Brooks, cashier of the bank, and that Mr. Rhea ap- peared excited. Dr. Palmer entered the bank-and said he heard Henrion- net say something about a “personal affair.” He also said he noticed a tremor in Henrionnet’s countenance. When Dr. Palmer came out of his office door at the sound of the firing, he encountered Officer Foucault, in charge of the recruiting” station across the hall. Both went to the top of the stairs and saw the smoke in the hallway entrance. Both des- cended, Foucault going into the bank, and into the president’s office where Henrionnet was seated. “Eternal Triangle” Avpears. Foucault on the witness stand stated he had known Henriganet about 12 or 14 years ‘and on? the day of the shooting entered the bank. He also had visions of a bank rob- bery. “T asked him what the matter was with him,” testified Foucault. “Have you gone crazy?” I asked him. “No,” he replied, “I was taking the up to make him enlist, I've been out to the sana- torium and he’s been chasing around with my wife.” “He acted as if he had had trouble of some kind and seemed mad about something,’”’ asserted Foucault. . Here it transpired that Foucault is ‘a distant relative of the Henrion- nets. \ i1 The officer further testified -that when Chief Ripple put in an appear- ance Henrionnet remarked “I guess I'm the man you. want.” Foucault later saw where the bul- lets struck Nelson and helped convey him to the ambulance. Others Testify Briefly. Other witnesses testified briefly. E. L. Benner of the Red Lake rail- road told of the arrival of Henrion- net the morning of the murder, com- ing down from Puposky. Albert Al- lard also testified to the purchase of the revolver at the Given Bros. store. Olaf Ongstad told of seeing Henrionnet leaving his mother’s house the forenoon of the tragedy and A. P. White, president of the Northern National bank, narrated happenings after the shooting when Nelson was in the bank. P HUFFMAN & O'LEARY FURNITURE & UNDERTAKING H. N.
