BROTHER EVANS.
When Colonel Aylett asked Mr.. Gu.
yerius TO draw a diagram Of the hole il
the plank, or railing, reporter handed
the witness pad upon leaf Of which
he could draw the diagram. Hand that
book back" said Mr.. Evans, Of counsel
for tefence. You had better get
other paper; that may go back to the
source from whence it came" Mr..
Evans evidently feared the papers.
When Colonel Aylett looked at the
diagram drawn by Mr.. Cluverius on a
piece Of paper furnished by the Court,
he said This looks more like an
Early Rose potato than anything else

Mr.. Evans asked that certain letters
that had been exhibited by Police-Jus-
tice Richardson be given to counsel for
defence, with the understanding that, il
possible, an agreement similar to thai
in the Cary Madison and Lillian Madi-
son letters affair be arrived at.
The prosecution did not object, and
Mr.. Evans went around TO the clerk
and designated the letters he wanted.

That is all | want; you can stand
aside.
Mr.. Meredith asked counsel for de-
fence when they would get through
with their evidence.
Judge Crump said if their witnesses
were present they could get through
during the evening. However he did
not object to the utilization of time, and
the Commonwealth could 60 on.
We do not intend to DO anything o
that sort, said Mr.. Meredith.

be another day before the defence wa'
through.
