They shouted ‘You G—d d—n, bald headed, peg-legged son of a —, open that door’ Then one of ‘hem said, I don't know which: Tl give you ten seconds to open tha% door or we'll break your head open.’ My chil- dren were crying, my wife was saying ‘Good God, what shall we do? What shall we do? Then my heart seemed to go out of my body. I don’t think 1 breathed. I saw the bolt on the door wu'just hanging. 1 stepped back into the room and got my gun. As I took it up I slipped a cartridge into the barrel, for 1 knew it was empty. Then with my gun at my shoulder I fired through the window. I didn’t take aim. I didn't see whats I hit. I kept on shooting as fast as I could work the lever. I held the gun in front of me. When I came to myself, I was stand- ing in front of the window, holding the lever, and my wife was saying: “There i Will Kinney lying out in the road’ The only time I fired with the gun at my shoulder was on the first shot.” . This is the way Simon A. G. Sals- bury, on trial in the superior court for first degree murder for Killing William Kinney of Prest% on May 6th last, described the shooting of Kinney, who was instatnly killed, and Herman Chapman, who was wounded and died later. Salsbury was put on the stand late on Friday afternoon here as the first witness for the defense after the state had produced its witnesses and rested. Throughout his testimony Salsbury spoke in a quite even tone, distinctly and with little trace of excitement. ‘When court adjourned at 430 till next Tuesday morning he had told his complete story under the questioning of his counsel, Atftorney J. J. Des- mond. Counsel for the accused man said on Friday that they would have few witnesses. After Salsbury had told his story, Attorney Desmond had started to go oyer some of the details with him and he will probably con- tinue this line of questioning when the case is resumed. Immediately after the shooting, Salsbury said he put on his shoes, took his revolver and left the house. going to the trolley line. He thought he would go to Norwich and give him- self up. It was just 3 o'clock as he went across the swamp. The first car that came along was going to West- erly, and he went there. He sat in the trolley station and directed an en- valope to the Norwich jpolice, but when he went out to mail it there was no letter box. - Then a train came along and he got on, intending first to get off at New Haven, Salsbury's counsel did not ask him to describe his subsequent journey till he was captured in ‘East - Liverpool. This had all been put before the court in a statement which Coroner Frank- lin H. Brown, the last witness for the state, had read. it was a statement that Salsbury made to the coroner in the jail after he had been brought back here. In the statement read by the coroner Salsbury had described a disagreement with Chapman, his landlord, over sell- ing manure off the place, in which Mrs. Chapman had threatened him that he would be put off if he sold a spoonful of manure from the place. He had told her that he thought he would be a rank coward if he listened to such a threat and also that he hadn't talked wilh a single person who had a good word to say for her. In his statement to the coroner Salsbury’s description of the shooting! followed quite closely his own story of it on the stand. It also said that Kinney and Chapman threatened to cut his heart out if he didn’t open the door. The attorneys for the prisoner did not cross examine the coroner. In opening his testimony Sals- bury said that he s 39 and has a wife and five children, the youngest one year old. He learned the trade of a shoemaker at East Liverpool, Ohio, and in the spring of 1915 went into the Winchester gun shop at New Haven. He has worked in gun 'shops in Bridgeport, New Haven and' Spring- field and at the Hopkins & Allen and Marlin Rockwell shop here. He told of hiring the C man place in Preston at $8 a monta in April, 1917, taking possession in the middle of the month, and moving 'his family from Bridgeport after the boy’s school closed. Part of the time while the family lived there he was working at ‘Winchester’s in New Haven and was working there at the time of the shooting. He returned [occasionally to his_home here. He had a_ shoe-sewing machine at his house which was the sewing ma- chine by the kitchen window which has previously been referred to in this trial. He never knew Chapman before the cay he hired the place and never had seen Kinney but once before the day of the shooting. 3 Saisbury testified to, family inci- dents covering the Saturday and Sun- day before the shooting. -Coming up to the day of the shooting, he testi- fied to helping a Jewish - peddler who came along the road about 1.50 in ti= afternoon. The peddler's wagon- hal run off a culvert on the road and into the wire fence, Chapman and his son came along and the senior Chapman cursed the peddler for running into the fence. The Chapmans said nothing to Sa ¢ and shortly went away. Cphapman also come en 'the way to Norwich and stopped and read the sign which Salsbury had pested upon a tree. Mrs, Chapman started to go irto the house, unhooking the gate, but then saw him, turned around ani went past him, speaking to the ped- dler on the way, but saying nothing to him. About 1.15 he saw Mrs. Kinney go- ing up the road towards Mrs. Chap- man'’s- house. After helping the peddler, Salsbury went back to the:house where he sat @ewn and took the baby on his lap. About 3.45 he started to pack his suit case to go to New Haven. His wife came running in and said, “Good God, here comes Chapman and Kinney running up the road” Something came up in my throat and I couldn't speak to my wife to save my life. I went to the front door and bolted it. From the way they were velling 1 thought they' were half drunk. My wife kept saying, “Good God, what shall we do; what shall we do?’ My children were ¢ryving. What ke told about the shooting has already been referred to. ‘When court came'in at 10 o'clock on Friday morning State's Attorney Had- lai A. Hyll had Deputy Sheriff George H. Stanton conglude his testimony which had been begun on Thursday. Civil ‘Engineer George E. Pitcher was recalled to the stand to testify about the glass broken from the win- dow of the Salsbury house. Dr.'C. C. Gildersieeve, medical ex- aminer for the town of Norwich, tes- tified to holding autopsy on body of Herman Chapman on June 16, 1918, but'owing to the fact of the atitopsy being a matter of rebutal Lis testi- mony was not completed. ! /Michael Nolan of the Connecticut State Tarm, constabie for town of ton, told of serving a writ on Salsbury for Chapman. “:Mrs. Harriet M.

The wedding was hastily arranged as Dr. Lewis, who is assistant surgeon on an Atlantic transport, sails soon again for France. The affair was a very quiet one on account of the se- rious illness of the bride’s father. The bride walked with her brother, E. Bradford.

She heard no voices ifrom . the lkouse. After her husband fell she heard Chapman calling “Hattie.” She found Chapman sitting under a tree which was in sight of the place where Kinney's body lay, but she did not go to the body because Mrs. Chapman wouldn't let her. Mrs. Kinney's direct examination was ended at 1 o'clock, On cross examination after the noon- recess, Mrs. Kinney told Public Defender Brown of a sign that had been posted at the Salsbury place on the first tree west of the gatepost. She had seen and read it. The words on the sign, she said, were “If any- ore-has any dirty work to do call on Will Kinney, Chapman did.” She told her husband about the sign. Before she heard the shot, she had heard talking but couyld not’ un- derstand the words, and there was no talking from the house. She had come out of her home because her husband called her to watch his team with which he was carting fertilizer. While she watched the team, they started off together down the road. She didn’t stay watching the horse, but started off after him. She denied that she had any apprehension that anything might happen or that this was the reason why she kept on walking after her husband. She heard four shots all fired close together and the second shot was the one that hit her husband. She. did not move until after the fourth shot had been fired. Her little two-year-old boy came up and attracted her attenion by taking hold of her dress. Then she went back and across the field to the state road where she came to Chapman sitting under a tree, FUNERALS. Charles M. Keneson. The_ private funeral of Charles M.
