boTne's first question today was:
Did not Mr. Barnet pay your wife
attention."
Not at all was the reply.
did you not 80 testify at the In
quest?'
Moineux's reply to this was that
Barnet had paid attention to Miss
Chesebro In the spring and autumn Of
1898, before she became Mrs MollneuX.
Mr. Osborne ceased his examination

pei said Il was his belief that the adj

cramped appearance was due TO its
having been written after the package
was made up.

said he would expect the sender of

writing. lie knew of no case In which
person had sent poison TO anyone
without trying to conceal his identity.
