Trial of Col. Burr
Friday, June 26.
The court was opened about half past
nine.
The grand jury entered at half past ten.
After their names were called o»er, Mr.
John Randolph delivered the follow in;.; in
dictments to the clerk, who read as follows :
[""Jonathan Dayton,"]

The Chief Justice, in the name of the
court, thanked the grand jury for their at-
tention, attendance and perseverance hi this
loot; and laborious investigation.
They were then discharged ; and the
court adjourned on the motion of Mr. Hoy,
until twelva.
The court met at twelve.
Mr. Belts rose to make a motion that some
prison or place of confinement of a more
suitable nature than the one now in use
Should be prepared for col. Burr. That the
prison in Richmond was a disgrace to hu-
manity. That unfortunately all the prisons
in the state are of this description. That
the place of confinement at present allotted
to col. Burr is only a room of about 10 feet
square, in which a man and his wife are at
present lodged. That the apartment more-
over is overrun with vermin, and the only
music which is heard is the rattling of chains.
Mr. Botts quoted an act which empowers
the court to commit to the state jail, or any
other jail, which they may think proper.
He said, he understood that either from a
natural apprehension, or an artificial appre-
hension, a company of military were stati-
oned round the jail. That such a multitude
would be sufficient to prevent his escape in
any place of confinement, or even at his
own lodgings. Mr. Botts asked, would it
not be a disgrace to the annals of this coun-
try, if jt were recorded at this particular
time, when the whole country was exaspe-
rated, that one in col. Burr's situation, should
suffer through pestilence and disease.
Jlfr. Wickham begged leave to add two
words. Col. Burr's sufferings have been and
are intolerable. I have seen this gentleman
in many situations. I have seen him in.one
of the most elevated situations of this coun-
try. I have seen him dragged to this city
in a most inhuman manner; and I have seen
him in the place in which he is at present
placed ; in ail which situations he has pre-
served the same firmness.
He, then concluded by praying the court
to alter the situation of his confinement.
Mr. Martin spoke at some length in sup-
port eitheir of admitting col. Burr to bail,
or removing him to sorrit o'her place of con-
finement, lie said, he himself and several
others were ready to join him, in admitting
col. Burr to bail in one hundred thousand
dollars. That he had full confidence in col.
Burr's honor and integrity ; and if he only
pledged his word to the court that he would
attend, that he would place full reliance
upon his promise.
The Court expressed their reluctance to
interfere, but thottghl the eifefcutivf might.
Mr. Ld/nund Randolph. The Court art
of opincin that they have the power under
certain circumstances, of appointing proper
places of confinement to accused persi ns,
The constitution and the amendments to the
constitution, authorise the Court to do this.
Ycu have heard, Sir, from the gentlemen
who are associated with me, the situation of
the jail in which col. Burr is confined.—J
have been there once, and I confess from the
ingredients that excited my feelings, 1 feel
a repugnance to visit that place again.
1 he Court after consideration, agreed that
the Marshal, if he pleased, might procure a
safe ft>om for the keeping of colonel Burr.
The Marshal accordingly went, attended
by Mr. Latrobe, the surveyor of the public
buildings, to inspect the rooms lately occu-
pied by Col Burr, to give their opinon whe
tlier or not they would answer the purpose.
Mr. Hay rose and made some observations
to the court as to the mode of proceeding in
Col. Bun's trial.
Colonel Burr informed the court, that he
had received a copy of the indictment and
that, he would plead not guilty.
Some discussion took place whether or not
the Clerk should read the Indictment, which
was agreed to.
Mr. William Marshall, the Clerk, then
put the following question to Col. Burr :
" Guilty or not Guilty."
Colonel Burr. I acknowledge myself to
be the person named in that indictment, to
which I plead not guilty, and accordingly
throw myself upon my country lor trial.
Major Scott the Marsha), then entered, and
informed the Court, that he had examined
the rooms in which Colonel Burr lodged, and
that in his opinion with a guard of seven
men and a Deputy Marshal, he would be
perfectly secure.
Tfie $ourt then requested that the Conn
sel for Colonel Burr should make an affidavit
as to the circumstances which they had
mentiontd respecting the jail.
Mr. E. Randolph read a paper, which he
said, he, and the associate counsel, had a-
greed to for that purpose.
This paper stated the same facts as those
mentioned by Mr. Bott's, Mr. Wickham
and Mr. Randolph.
The counsel for colonel Eurr, then re-
quested that orders might be given fotha mar-
shal 11 admit (he counsel for colonel Burr,
or any of his friends.
Some objections ware started by Mr. Hay
to the admission of persons in general to vi-
sit colonel Burr.
The Court was of opinion that the mar-
shal ought to admit any person not of a sus-
picious description, but that the descrimina-
tion must depend upon the marshal him-
self.
Mr. Martin observed that in the case of
Stephen Sayre, who was confined in the
tower of London, that if we were to be-
lieve Mrs. Baddely, ladies were even admit-
ted;
Mr. Hay then observed to the court that
he had some difficulties with respect to the
summoning of the venire. That the law
tleclared in all caaes «f dsalh Jlut the ve-
nue should be ssmrnoned fr.^m the r...ty
where the offence is alledged to be (.unit-
ed ; but that an amenduient to the epila-
tion postetior t the law, declares t the
accused shall have a right to a spee trial
by a jury summoned "dm any parti the
state.
Mr. Hay therefore wished the opijn of
the court on the subject.
Mr. M'Rae read the 3d section ofu act
of cougres-, passed in March, 17;, to
shew that it was the intention of caress,
that the law regulating the venire ould
still remain in force.
. The Chief Justice after some disciion,
gave his opinion, that if both parties seed,
the venire might be summoned froi any
part of the state.
Colonel Burr and hisr counsel wish the
venire to be taken from this district, I the
counsel for the prosecution inforrnethe
court, after so ne consultation, that thehad
resolved not to^give their assent. A nire
was therefore ordered to be summonedom
the county of wood, and the adjacent un-
ties, 12 from the former and 36 fronthe
latter. After which, it was agreed, It it
should be deterriiined this day, to whalnie
the court would adjourn.
(To be continued.)
We are informed that a lengthy disssi-
on took place among the grand jury,ior
presenting general Wilkinson for gh
treason—but when the votes were tarn,
they were equally divided.
The following is doctor Bollman's letttto
the grand jury, a copy of which as
some days since handed by the couto
the bar. It is understood to have tn
well received by the grand jury, but at
they cculd not act upon it, because ty
had no further occasion for the docl's
evidence.
Gentlemen,
I find myself placed in a very unusuahd
painful si uation. Before I was sworn id
sent up to you as a witness against coiod
Burr, a patent of pardon was tenderedo
me in open court by the attorney for the!".
States. It had not been solicted by me, al
I could not think of receiving it, btcaie
the acceptance would have implied an -
knowledgment of guilt, and would ha
lead to inftrrences against colonel Bit,
which I could not have reconciled to tr
conscience. It was therefore as prompt
rejected as it had been officiously offered, a!
appearing before your honorable body wit
out any mention having been made to yt
of the subject, I consider the pardon as 110,
existing.
it happens, however, that I continue tol
proclaimed in court, by the counsel for tl:
pn secution, as a pardoned man, a procee
ing at which my feeling justly revolt, sine
no individual can have 2 right voluntarily t
affix to my name the opprobrium of guilt
nor to expose me to the suspicion of having
under the influence or this detestable indent
nity for pretended offences, furnished evi
lie! ce which I would not otherwise havi
gi.ell.
In this situation, only one mode occurs t<
me of obtaining the interference of the com
to r. scire me from the disgrace of the pa; don
It is to inform your honorable body of th«
circumstsmce, and to state at the Same time,
that 1 cannot otherwise than feel myself em.
barrassed as .1 witness, and constrained in an
s wrung your questions, while I continue in
my present predicament.
Flattering myself that you will have been
satisfied with 6heca*fdi 1 and frankness with
which I have endeavored to reply to your
inquiries io n.y first examination, and ven-
turing to app al for the justificati, n of my
feelings, on th.it occasion, tin your o-wn, I
hope that you will not consider my conduct
as improper. Nothing car. he in, re remote
from my intentfons than the wish to screen
myself from further interrogatories. My
only objict is to obtain, through the medium
of your interposirion, a formal deoiaud of
the court, for the preservation of my cha-
racter ; and I trust you will deem it correct
and becoming, that iij the capacity of a wit-
ness I should protect it with more than com
nion solicitude.
I have the honor to remain,
With great tespect, gentlemen,
Yeur most obedient sei vanr,
ERICK COLLMAN

of the grand jury.
