whatever in the report. Mrs. Potts
did leave statement with Mr.. Plum

more than repetition of her tes-
timony at the trial. The statement
in question recapitulates the evidence
then given, with which the public is
familiar, reiterates the assertion
that these are the true facts in the
case, and closes with this remarkable
statement:

wickedness of the world, and has to
