The first witness was Mrs. Caroline
Wright of Newburg, who told how Mrs.
Halliday had appeared at her house and
engaged Margaret McQuillan as domestic
help, representing herself as Mrs. Smith
The other witnesses were Joseph Osborn
and Margaret Arnot, who testified that
they had seen the McQuillan girl drive
away with the prisoner.
Tho defense in the Halliday case seem
to be doing kHt little, apparently relying
upon the law which protects any and all
forms of insanity. The prisoner was com
pletcly composed. and If it were not for oc-
casional twitchings Of her mouth no one
would suspect that she understood that
anything unusual was going on. Aler

stand He testified that he went to the
house on Monday. Sept. 4, and found a
pistolball while taking up tho carpet. He
was the man who proposed TO Mrs. Halli-
day that she go to Bloomngburg with a
couple of men for tho purpose Of getting
her husband
He described minutely the discovery Of
the bodies of the McQuillan women. When
the prisoner was brought back from Bloom
ingburg, Justice Sawyer told her that the
bodies of two strange women had been
found on her place. She appeared perfectly
rational. he said, until the evening of this
day, Monday, when she began to act queer
ly and to complain that potato bugs were
crawling over her. The blood stained rope
was put in evidence and identified by Mr.
Sawyer as that found I'm the house The
bullets taken from the bodies of the wom-
en- were also produced They were found
wrapped up i'm the report of the testimony

| piled to their inquiries that il was her own
