, the admission of Mrs. Logan's

MIR. Carlisle and Mr. Stoll made state
ments with reference to Mrs. LOgan's ex-
animation, from which it appeared that
Mrs. Logan. who attended Miss Pollard
when her first child was born, had ac-
cuSed MIR. Stoll of prosecuting her in ask
ing fool questions, d" as she termed them.
Mr.. Stoll made long explanation about
the matter, disclaiming any intention of

WAS MISS POLLARD MRS. BURGOYNE2
Mrs. Logan said that while she was
DIR. Sweet, practicing physician, of Gin
cinnati. she attended young woman in
1854, who gave her name as Mrs Monica
Burgoyne. Miss Pollard was present
while Mrs. Logan's disposition was being
taken, but Mrs. Logan said that while
there were some things about Miss
Pollard that suggested Mrs. Burgoyne, she
could identify her. The young woman had
said that she was pregnant with her
first child, that her husband was dead
and acting as though there were a reason
why the matter should be kept secret.
The young woman called twice at Mrs,
Logan's Office, and later the deponent
called TO see Miss Pollard. Now as |
look at her, l begin to recognize her, "
said the deponent at this point. The de-
ponent said Mrs. or Miss Bur-
goyne" had gone to a lying-in house
kept by Catholic sisters on the
Reading road, near Cincinnati, to be con-
fined. Mrs. Burgoyne had told Mrs Lo-
gan that she was Is years old; she did
not look older than that. After being
confined the young woman went to the
house of DR.. Sperry and Mr.. Buchanan,
where she took another name, which the
witness did not remember. Mrs. Bur-
goyne was very reticent person, and
told nothing about herself.
AN ELDERLY CALLER.
One day while the deponent was calling
on patient, an elderly gentleman came
to the patients house to see her. and
asked about Mrs. Burgoyne. Mrs. Logan
said she did not remember what the man
looked like, except that he was elderly.
Have you ever seen Mrs Burgoyne
since2" was asked the deponent.
Never; except that she may be this
| lady. Yet they seem very different
their hair was different and this lady is
thinner I think the other lady wore
glasses" Miss Pollard does not wear
| glasses.
| Maj. Butterworth read the type written
| statement of the deponent's cross exami-
nation. 1t developed nothing new or inn
| portant.
AT its conclusion, the court took re-
| cess. After the recess the time until 2 80
| O'Clock was occupied in reading a mass of
| dispositions taken at various places.
A SISTER OF CHARITY CALLED.
Then two-bonnetted, black-robed,
| ltindly-faced sisters, who seemed out of
| place in the courtroom, entered and one
| of them took the stand. She said she was
| Sister Cecilia, of Pueblo, Colo
Sister Cecilia said she belonged to the
order of Sisters of Charity and in 1885
| was in charge Of the Norwood Founding
! Asylum, near Cincinnati. She did not
! recall any person by the name of Bur
| goyne, who was at the asylum while she
was there. She did remember DR.. Mary
| Sweet, who afterwards became Mrs
Logan. DR.. Sweet had visited the
asylum. twice to see patient.
which the defense tried so
hard to have excluded from the trial,
were shown Sister Cecilia, and in answer
| to questions she said books resembling
| these had been presented to her by fe-
male patient at the asylum. When the
witness went to Pueblo she left the books
at Norwood. In answer to other dues-
tions by Mr.. Carlisle, the witness said she
| remember a female patient, who
mad been discovered corresponding with
another person through the Cincinnati
Enquirer.
She had met Miss Madeline Pollard since
| coming to Washington, and had once re-
| ceived letter from her. Mr.. Carlisle
| asked if in this letter and in con
versatiOns Miss Pollard had correctly de-
| scribed the founding asylum, but Mai.
Butterworth objected. Judge Wilson ex-
planned that the questions were asked
merely to ascertain whether certain
things existing in the asylum in 1885 had
been correctly described by Miss Pollard
Before the argument proceeded farther,
Judge Bradley said it was 8 o'clock and
he ordered an adjournment until to-mor-
row,
