Being a pa^sengtfr in the mail Stage
from Ft. In#B. to Eagle Pass, on iiieSJ
Augfist, 1859, and being called upon
Mr. B. David to make a statement of
what occurred that, evening at Turkey
Creek,^in reference to the Stege driver'
Alick t'akingamnle, I have no hesitation
in siatiug the following facta ^
ay above-mentioned*, the
detained at Ft. Ii ~
on the rc
e.was preny "tight" when*
itg jj-gaw ftt Tnrkev Creek. Upon Jus
arm'al there he wafe ill formed that one of
his rffuWs was_.5o lame^hat he could not
bea'ile to drive'hiiT*4o^agle Pass; soma
examination w^s made as.to ihe causa
of the lameness, but wilNwit its being
discovered. Iii the coj^u^e df conversation
o«ecf the men living at Turkey Creek,
asked Alick if he had lost a mule; h%
said he "had lost ft 'dan mule alout 13
-months before on the Cbicon, and that he;
had been frequently seen in that range;
the man tbeti told him fiat he had caught
a dun mule in company with a brown
one,- and -bronght them out for Alick to
see, whosaid he was>rtEit^.cerUin tha^
ihe dun mine-was the one iost on the

examination, be believed to "be one that
he had bronht-at Eagle PassJsonje three

line between San Antonio aud Fre«leiicki| A

away iii some matmer, and was maktn®^
drive him to Esgle PasS, as^ his mule w<ii
laTne. After pou'irig the harness on tha-
mules and lie-was about huch'mg Lint
iu the stage, he'said he could uot.orive d.
mule with a long tail, whereupon hc took
his knife <^ut and cut off about 3 inchs^of
the hair, making it a snob tail—there
was no efiert'at-concealment this being
doue m the presence of'hree men who
seemed to l>e living at Turley Creek, au^
other passenger and myself, I saw Jfoth-
ii]it like au«ffort at concealment «>ou|
the wh le affair—I believe that Aliek
was of the opinion that the mule was
the one lie stated it to be,and that lie was
loo ti"ht to make a uice distinction -be-
tween mnles. l?rom what I have seen
of l.iin being travelled with him several,
times in the last year, I believe thaf ha
would look upou it as almost a d sgrac<r
not to know a mule.
I will further state that T have frequent
