Attorney General Tanner objected, but
the court admitted the question.
Palmer said the year after their mar
riage he turned over his land and house
to her. As new property was bought
and houses erected the deeds were
given TO her. Next he transferred lis
shares OF American Screw company
stock to her and then he invested $40,-
600 in stocks as she desired aud gave
them TO her. The investment was made
through Joseph Dennis and the $4,000
was invested in stock not a great while
before her death.
Palmer could not give the value OF
the houses he had transferred, as Mrs
Palmer kept all the papers. He said
he took his wife To Europe about four
years ago.

Had 10 Be Undressed.

Once he recalled his condition was
such his wife had to undress him. He
felt very bad over this. Witness the
morning after would remember what
took place the night before. His wife
did not care II he drank, only when he
drank and made fool OF himsff. His
wife was not n prohbitionist, nor dur
ing the last three years did she have
reason TO complain OF his drinking. She
did not want him TO get back to his old
habits.
Witness did not recall his wife hav-
ing "a talk with him about signing a pa
per, and his answer was positive she
had not refused to sign a paper unless
she got some OF the money. The rea-
son witness had let his wife have
charge OF the building OF his houses
was because she said she could do IL
better. and he agreed with her as he
had generally done, for the past three
years. Witness collected rents of his
property. both after and before his
mothers death. His tenants were old
ones. and all ne had TO do was to go
around and collect the checks.

thought he had an 3ttack of nausea. He
drank "a bottle of ginger ale and that
would not stay on his stomach. The at
tack OF nausea seemed TO overcome him
as he reached the lounge in his home.
Palmer thought the feelings after these
attacks was the same as II one was
dying, but said he was not very good
at describing It.. From the time he was
16 years old until his marriage he did
not remember having any of these at
tacks and during that period he drank
the hardest.

amined the witness as to his drinking
habits. Palmer said he regretted to
say re had been drunk several times.
He could drink a great deal without ii
showing on him. Witness called man
drunk when he could not navigate and

he could not walk a crack. Witness re-
called having been put to bed at the
