The first I saw of Mr Goode, I met him in the door of the bar room, on my return from the bar, he stopped me and asked me to loan him fifty dollars, that he had made a bet or wager upon a fight ... About this time deceased and Lloyd Mitchel came up and a general conversation to place, all of which I cannot recollect. Goode Still insisting on getting the money. At this time I insisted on Goode tell me who it was that he intended fighting; with some reluctance he informed me that it was deceased, and Lloyd Mitchel does not know with whom he intended betting Mitchel and deceased were clearly disposed to take it as a romance; and Mitchel even embraced Goode around the neck ... they were both drinking

wished to know why he deserved a quarrel with him (deceased) as he had nothing against him (Goode) Goode replyed, that he had loaned him some money in Charleston, and that he (deceased) had never paid it. Deceased said he had paid it, and could prove to him the time and place.
