brick poisoned her husband any more than
you did was Mr.. Maybrick's body servant
for four years before his marriage. During
that time he lived in Norfolk, Va. He and
his partner, Mr.. N. N. Bareson, kept
bachelors quarters and / lived there
with them. Mr.. Maybrick often complained
that he did not feel we'll, and time and time
again he has sent me TO the drug store to get
him some arsenic. l always bought half
dollars worth at time. Then
would make him some beef tea and
he would put little Of the arsenic into it aud
drink it. Mr.. Maybrick then went to England,
got married and returned to Norfolk. They
lived in fine style and had great deal Of
company. I used to superintend all
their dinners and receptions, which were
many. Mr.. Maybrick continued to use arsenic,
but don't know whether his wife knew Of it
or not. l never heard an unpleasant word
pass between them. Toward the last
OF my service at Mr.. Maybrick's his doses of
arsenic grew larger. Mrs. Maybrick used to
give him whole powder at his request, but I
don't think she knew 1t was arsenic. She is as
innocent as child of any intention to murder
