dence which came to him after the yer.
dict was rendered. To the question "Did
Jennie die at West Haven| the gentle,
man answered:
"NO. She died right here in New Haven.
When she left her fathers house on Thuns-
day morning she was almost distracted.
Her mother had talked 10 her in q very
severe manner, probably warranted by the
circumstances; but Jennie had always been
peIted and carressed, aud the scolding
Oyercame her"
"How long did she remain there?r
until Thursday night, The testimony
Of Mn, Klippenstein Is correct. This lady
saw the two girls in the room on Wednes-
day and Thursday, She saw james NAL
leFy there also, but she did not see him
sufficiently well to enable her to swear to
bis identity"
Where was Jennie after she left the e.
liot HOuseY"
n will tell you later. She remained
there until Thursday evening, then she
went out TO walk with Blanche Douglass.
They went into sperry's drug store, Us
Hubble stated. They were waiting for
James Malley. They met bin and Jennie
and Jim went to u room In the FOote build
Ing and remained all night"
"HOw long did she remain there?"
"Until Friday night. On Friday morn
ing she began to realize her position, and
begged Jim to marry her, He refused, and
after he had gone Jennie took a dose Of
arsenic, She was ln inveterate arsenic
eater and doubtless had some Of the drug
about her"
"Did ii kill herr" la au.a
mo; her system had become too well
llsel to It, so Il only made her sick. James
was already alarmed and he took her out
for a walk and wasSeen by Ilauserthe beer
man and his cousin, That part Of TIanser's
testimony was all right, but he did not see
them at the beach as he testified, lie may
have thought he did,"
This was Friday noon, | think he tcstl.
Red" ~,
"Yes. The next time Jim went to the
room Jennie Cnmer lay dead, having
taken heavy tose Of arsenic. OF course,
i put him in aterrible position. Ifthere had
been an outcry the whOlestory would have
leaked out, and he did not wantto do that,
70 he counseled with friends"
with Miss Douglas, prOhahlyW
YVES, and there's where he made a great
mistake; that and lying so has made all
he trouble and placed him In terrible
position, Well, Jim and Walter and
Blanche had a long talk over the matter.
The boys wanted to consult Edward
halley, but finally yielded to Blanches i'm
1otunities 70 say not about 1t but quietly
ret away with the body"
And that was done"
Yes; you remember that the BARRIERS
wife testified that IllanOhe and Walter were
n consultation with man In front OF the
elliot House. That man was James Nal

''How did the body get to. West IIaven?"
That was q device Of Banches. She
,ooked up q storyto tell and 1t was this:
Iennie had been betrayed and committed
nicide by Jumping into the bay; that Is IL
he body was recognized as Jennie's"
These, Ipresume, are theories p
No sir" was the reply, "they are facts
II which ] have knowledge, ] cannot say
ret whether James went to the beach with
he body or not, From what | have
earned ! believe that Walter and Blanche
ook the body down there and james re-
nalned behind, Three persons riding In
