that he had the right to go into details.

In his objection to this line OF Interrogation MIR.
Vance contended that If Mr.. Lapham was right ali
the law books ought to be burned, and he said to
the latter, fu take this question before the United

You can't shield Mr.. Sims this ways
Mt Lapham "You'u find me there with the au-
thorities."
