“McIntyre laid the gun against a stump and
Lonigan sat on the log I advanced, my brother Dan keepin McIntyre
covered which he took to be constable Flood and had he not obeyed
my orders, or at-tempted to reach for the gun or draw his revolver
he would have been shot dead but when I called on them to throw
up their hands McIntyre obeyed and Lonigan ran some six or seven
yards to a battery of logs insted of dropping behind the one he
was sitting on, he had just got to the logs and put his head up
to take aim when I shot him that instant or he would have shot me
as I took him to be Strachan the man who said he would not ask me
to stand he would shoot me first like a dog” --
