point of view OF the evidence. Re
ferring to the testimony of Schley and

Sampson, at Key West, Lemly said:
Il ask the court to apply to the ap-
plicant as a witness the well known
rule referred to with so much fervor
by the senior counsel, that where two
witnesses testify with regard to the
same matter and one of them remem-
bers and the other merely does not
remember the circumstances of the
matter, or let us say the conversa-
tion, the evidence of him who remem-
bers must be accepted. II this be
done, then there is little left OF the
evidence before this court by the ap-
plicant, particularly upon his cross
examination"

and the public sessions of the court
