arose how were they to get 1t home.
No one seemed able to hit upon a
method TINT would be likely to meet
with success until the last evening pre-

that 1t was impossible for him to have

In SO brief period, and on that plea
largely based his defense the other
testimony being .;trongly against his
client.

piled, he said: "How long time really
