statement and I have not been promised anything and don't ask anything to make this statement. I am simply telling the truth of my own free will.

Detectives Langford, Choring and Sturdevant took a statement from me today. I did not tell them all that I am telling here because I knew they were trying to get things to favor Conley and I knew he was guilty, and that what I knew wouldn't help him b.t would break his neck. Chief Langford also asked me if Conley used his mouth on me a:d I didn't say anything.

As to how I come to make the statement, when I was down at the station house today, and the Detectives asked me all those questions, I knew what they were trying to do; that they were trying to help Conley, and so I went right from the station house to Dr. Jake Jacob on Decatur street and told him everything that had happened, and he then told me that I ought to make a statement about it and that is how I come to make this statement.
