Kelly: Why did you leave five of your iellow-'creitures on the top of a high moun tain, exposed to the hail an 1 the rain, the frost ami the sunshine, and exposed to the fowls of the air, and the beasts of the field to the wild pigs and the rats, with which many parts of the jungle of >ew Zealand is" infested, and thus allow their bodies to be so exposed for so iong a time before you made your confession ? Sullivan: Because it was not.safe to confess at mice, as I have told you; and as for the bodies, the mischief had been done, and they were dead.
Kelly: Why did you not make yonr con fession before thewitneses swore to your being se;n on the road between here and Canvas Town ?

Sullivan: I was waiting to see whether or not the Government could get sufficient evi dence to establish the case, and then I gave the necessary information to get all the wit nesses together, to connect the case. Kelly; Was ii because you wished to see if any witnesses would swear to me ? Sullivan: N.., we had all been sworn to, the whole of us, before I gave information. Kelly: Was it because you wished to hear the witnesses fi st that you waited so long ? Sullivan : No, I knew we should all be sworn to I was told before you were apprehended, by a sailor who came up with us in the Wallaby that he knew us all. He came to me at the hotel abut eleven o'. lock on the Tuesday morning, and said that he had seen Levy in the lock-up and knew him, aud that he knew all of us.
