Mr Dow denied having Employed Mr Broadhead to plead
his case. Dow said I Joined Mor Morris & believed him to be
a prophet and I dont know as I have done any thing to
break the Law and I believe now that Morris ias as much
a Prophet as he was before he died. Judge Keinney said
I will dispose of this case and asked Miner if He knew of
some more guilty than others. The court separated the danes
from the English & then addressed the English and said I wish
to Explain to you the Law you hav violated. On the 22nd day of
