THE BONNER CASE.
David Credle Put Upon the Stand and
[Special to Reflector.
~David Credle, one of the persons i im-.
plicuted, was put upon the stand ata
quarter to 12 o'clock yesterday. He
said: Tam 25° years old, was born i in |
Hyde county, canTtread or write. Have
been living i in this county about four
years and in Aurora about one year.
Have known the defendants all this
time... I was the-tirst one arrested and
William Brantly.. with me was appre-
hended at ThompsonTs store. The
Bells were arrested the next morning.
I was carried to ThompsonTs hall and
guarded all night. Next morning I
told the Sheriff . I wanted to see J. W.
Flowers. Told Flowers who...was con-
nected with the murder, Flowers did!
not make any threats. or promises. .Af-
ter seeing Flowers I saw M. J, Fowler
and W. B. Rodman, they did not make
any threats or promises. T have made
statements to the StateTs counsel here,
they made no promises or threats, I
went before the grand jury, refused to
testify the first time. My brother told |;
me not to say - anything until he saw me}
again. By making this statement or |
confession IT donTt know what will be,
the consequences. _ oWas ~working with
J. M. Flowers when ~murder was com"
mitted. Brantley was the first one to
mention the ~killing of. Bonner to me,
He came to the woods where I was
working. I went in the woods to get a
pole and Brantly followed. Brantley
said ~Dave, ainTt you tired working in it
this world when you can do better?|
| Brantly : said ~I can do better, my leg|
has been. broken and I can hardly walk,
Can't work ~much now and I know « a
couple of parties where we can get some
~,,| money and there are , two others. onn-,
| nected with me in this and we want the
fourth man. oI asked who the other|
o| two were, ~he would not say, He did
not say who they were that had money,
said the other two with him would pot
be susp idioned, they stood high, ~Brant-
ley uid ~Credle, you will suit us, we
want you.T Brantley said they were to
rob and take anything they eould get
hold of. He said ~do you mind killing
a man? I said yes, sir, 1 donTt wunt
to kill any one. Brantley said we have
got three. pistols, you just take us we |
Anock down, I then cut polea and went
it tae 0 ss
back. Brantley. says you come to my.
house, the other parties, will be there,
Brantley made the proposition Thurs-
day week before Bonner was killed.
No one was present when he was tulk-
~ing to to me, We then went ~back. Brant-
a Seer s
i. ley told ~Flowers to send after him that,
night and he would work with him. |
went after Brantley that night, never

Uriah then said we have broken, open

was going to lay a pipe on window fac-
ing, this was to be a sign for them to
break open thé store and get the money
[from the drawer. W. A. Thompson

ning stroke, before which all people
of all ages had ¢ in terror,
faced what most of the world then
believed to be the avenging blow of |
an angered God. True, he believed
that electricity and lightning were
the same thing and therefore had no
different properties or effects, but he
did not know it.
The best existing theory which
| accounted for electrical phenomena
at that time was his own. The laws |
of electrical conduction or resist- |
ance, now so familiar, were not even
sus Who could predict that
. the lightning would obey any law?
Besides he had produced tremendous
shocks with his Leyden jars in series
and had killed birds with them.
~More than that, he had_ been terri-
bly shocked himself by the same
nned_ into insensibility
and. nearly killed. ~He had said
again and again that an electric}
~shook, if strong enough, would biot
out life, though without a pang. If} D
~his idea was correct, if his convio-
tion was true, he was now about to
face an electric discharge beside
which that of the most powerful of
man made batteries would seem
weak and insignificant. .
