No doubt Mr. Lincoln
will be glad to hear...

1:18:04
that she was not
the only eyewitness...

1:18:07
to the murder of Scrub White.
1:18:09
Recall Palmer Cass to the stand.
1:18:21
Mr. Cass...
1:18:23
where were you
when Scrub White was killed?

1:18:26
I was about a hundred yards away,
I reckon.

1:18:28
And you saw the killing
with your own eyes?

1:18:33
Yes, sir. I - I did.
1:18:39
Quiet.! Quiet.!
1:18:41
Order.!
1:18:47
Why didn't you
tell us this before?

1:18:51
Nobody asked me.
1:18:53
Have you told anybody else about this?
1:18:56
- No, sir.
- Why not?

1:19:01
Well, I -
1:19:04
I just didn't want to help
get nobody hung, that's all.

1:19:06
And that was your only reason -
1:19:08
this natural reluctance...
1:19:10
against being a party
to any man's hanging?

1:19:13
- Yes, sir.
- Why do you tell us now?

1:19:18
Well, I- I just began to realize...
1:19:20
that if I don't tell,
maybe both of'em will get hung.

1:19:26
Mr. Cass.
1:19:28
How could you see so clearly...
1:19:32
from a distance of a hundred yards
at 11:00 at night?

1:19:36
Well, it was moon bright.
1:19:40
- Moon bright.
- Yes, sir.

1:19:42
Then you clearly saw which boy...
1:19:45
pulled the knife?
1:19:49
Yes, sir. I did.
1:19:53
The defendants will stand up.
1:19:59
Now, Mr. Cass, tell us.
