Chester Gillette's defense went to pieces
when the defendant went 20 the witness
stand and told a story that the prosecu-
tlon riddled TO shreds with a fiery fire OF
questions that penetrated every hnre OF
the defense's case. Even the few wit

mony that was damaging to Gillette. the

and the school professor all gave Gillette
a good reputation but not one had ever
heard of billy" Brown. the factory girl.

to make his wife.
His Watch Was Running

that when Gillette was brought to Her
kimer jail he examined his watch and
found it running. This evidence was adj
duced to show that had Gillette SWAN
ashore as he said it would have water

into the water.
