left for downtown he immediately got a shovel and proceeded to dig
a grave for the victim, which grave is located about two and one-half
feet fron the house and about one and one-half feet fram the back
porch in a corner. He stated he dug this grave about two and one-half
to three feet deep. He stated he was so excited and panicky at this
time that he was digging very rapidly and that he dug a good size
grave which he was certain would hold the victim,
He stated he stopped downstairs, took the blue plastic
sheet, put the victim's body on it and decided to bury him. He
stated he made one trip up the stairway, went outside, decided the
hole was not suitable, carried the body back downstairs and then
arrived at the conclusion that he would wait until BONNIE HEADY got
home, wag going to get the station wagon, put the body in it and carry

back up the stairway another time, placed it in the station wagon and
then realized that he might be detected while he was disposing of the
body and finally decided to bury it in the previously dug grave. He
stated he then removed the body from the station wagon, although
considerable blood had dripped in the station wagon at this period. He
stated that he then wrapped the body in the blue plastic sheet, placed
the body in the grave and put a quantity of lime on top of the body
to facilitate decomposition as he had read that this was the thing te
