ment except a little beef tea. he was obliged
to administer opates to her after her collapse
in the courtroom at $50 O'clock in the morn
ing, and after she was carried back to her cell
in the Tombs she remained in stup5r until
about moor. She remained in bed later in the

she had been pounded. and she could not re-
member having heard what happened in tae

Abraham Levy and Daniel O'ReiIIy. of her
counsel. saw Miss Patterson in the afternoon
and told her that she probably would loo admit
ted to bail in few days, advising her to be
patient and rest where she was, as it would be
necessary to send her to q hospital if she were
released Immediately. The lawyers were unable
to confer with MI. Jerome or Iii. Rand, as llr.
Jerome was in Albany and Mr.. Rand did not
go to his once.

ceediug $1,000 ana that she would not be called
on TO face a jury a fourth time. As a precedent.
