nots all over IT, and the waist and skirt were OF inc

her relations With her stepmother without De-
ing Intimate always warm and friendly. licr Sls'er
Emma being ten years older than she, had been'
hovever that member OF the family to whom she
chiefly turned for such counsel and comfort as d
daughter commonly obtains from mother. she sad
she had had a quarrel with her stepmother hNe years
ago. on account Of gift her father had MADE 10 her
mothers stcpsiser.
This Is her account OF that difficulty II Is not
or,e intelllcblc but the whole examination Is con-
,,s.d and strange Mrs. Borden had a stcpmother
and "A half sister. II l understand it right, ana the
hou,e was for sale. The stcNnother, Mrs. Grover
Gray wanted TO sell II, and ms father bought out

gave it to her. Put 1t In her name. Sad II Nv
ave that to her he ought to give us something.
Told Mrs. Borden so. She did not
,ore ANYTHING about the house herself. she
wanted It so this half-sster could have hohe'
because she had married man that was not oo'hs
the best he could and she thought her sister WIS
having very hard time and wanted her 10 nave
home And we always thought she persuaded father
to buy IT, At any rate, he did buy II, and am
auitc sure she did persuade him. l said what ne
did for her people he ought TO do for his own
children 50 he gave grandfathcr's house. IiiI
WAS all the trouble VIC ever had
Bcvond this. Lizzie said, she had never had any
trouble with Mrs Borden, though at that time she
ceased to call her mother and rarely dd so AFTER
ward. Under the pressure Of rapid and not sum-
GENTLY clear questioning, she became greatly con-
fused in her account OF where she was when her
father returned from downtown. At one time she
said she In her room up stairs linen she
thought she was on the stairs, coming down. Asnln.
She expressed herself nearly certain that she
was I'm the Kitchen and TO that answer she hnaiiy
adhered.

Mr. Borden entered, and greeted him by ASKING ior
