epired by them with terror, a. abe knew that
Il they arc credited, or arc proved correct,
tho fact Of her having deooyed n Gouhe to
TO Rue Troncon Ducoudray, and having
neck, must seriously compromise her beyond
the responsibility she had assumed by her
confession.
'sIn speaking to the Sisters Of Mercy Bonn
pard expressed regret that she had ever
placed herself in the hands Of the police,
and kept repeating with vehemence that
fectly calm. In speaking to his wardens he
said in reference to his being confronted
with Gabrielle Bompard: 4 related what
happened; nothing more. It would
have been impossible for me to master
the sheri6's officer if Gabrielle Bompard
had not helped me. That woman imagines
! try to compromise her, but how can her
situation be made worse by what Imay say1
The best thing she can do is to confess all
manded whether he might not see the bar
rister who is to defend him, and begged
that the examining magistrate would
hasten the preliminaries of the trial. He
had, he affirmed, nothing more that he
could add concerning the murder, 30 that
he was at loss to understand the neces-
sity of further delay. DIR. Lacassagne has
again examined the throat of the murdered
man, but it is now in such shriveled con-
dition that it has been impossible for the
doctor to say whether the assertion of Ey-
raud that the injuries to the cartilage must
have been caused by the knots of the cor
