The Woman In the Case.
HOW THE ,oDEFN JEANNE DEANS MAINTAINED TN


The Weekly Ne,cs, Of Dublin, publishes letter
from Mr.. A. N. Sullivan, who was one OF Patrick
ODonnell's counsel entitled ''susan Gallagher the
Irish JEANNE Deans; An Episode OF the O'Donneu
Trial" He says simple Donegal girl outrivaled
the Midlothian heroine In her anguish, sacrifice,
devotion, and truth "Years ago ODonnen sep
arated from his wife in America. While rev1sit1ng
Donegal ODonnen met susan, who consented,
under the appearance Of his sister. to accompany
him to the Cape, where they intended to marry.
When. after her return to England, she was inter-
viewed by MessrS Pryor and sullivan, Susan stated
that after leaving Cape Town she sat nstless sea-
sick and dazed In the steamers saloon, and when
Mr. Sullivan approached the critical point concern
ing Carey's pistol Susan, realizing the tremendous
importance OF the question, suffered intense mental
anguish and trembled like an aspen leaf. Sobbtngy
She replied: MY back was turned toward them, SIR
Oh, II had only turned round beforei Oh. sir,
was not looking the right way. 1 heard some noise
on the floor IL might have been the stunning OF
feet 1t was q small matter"
Mr. Sullivan adds: 'sWho could contradict her II
she testified that she behed Carey with pistol In
hand Or what could be easier than for to declare
that she heard the pistol fall Z" In conclusion he
says: 1.-THE people OF Tyrconnell may claim with
pride the humble heroine OF religion and truth,
Susan Gallagher, the Irish JEANNE Deans"
