THE CASE OF TERRY VS.. GASKEII,

enough impression on him to remember
the dates. He said that Mr.. and Mrs.
Gaskell, Mr.and Mrs. Peck and Mr.and
Mrs. Worth went to the priest about the
affair. He said his wife was not a
strong, robust woman, although she
did her work alone, all summer. He
did not meet Mr.. and Mrs. Terry going
west on the night in question, as
stated by the Terrys. He noticed
Bernadette and Mrs. Gaskell striking
at each other, only after Mrs. Gaskell
had explained the affair to him.
AT Attorney Davies, question of,
"Why did you not protect your wife
from Bernadette?' Answer: ST did
get around there as soon as 1 could"
Question: "Was not Mr.. Stetter
abundently able to handle Mr.. Terry?"
Answer: "Why, certainly"
Question: "When Stetuer knocked
down Mr.. Terry why did you not 60 to
the assistance of your wife?" Mr..
was in my way"
Mr.. GaSkell was then asked if his
wife had been operated upon about a
year ago and that since she had been
in poor health, to which he answered
in the affirmative. Then the attorney
asked, "Did not your wife work in the
canning factory during the past sum-
mer for 10 cents per hour?" to which
he replied in the affirmative. Mr..
Gaskell then said that he saw James
Farnworth at the Gem theatre that
night, that he knew him because he
spoke and that he had talked with
him since. There was then some
questioning as to the time that Mr.
Gaskell returned from Hustler which
was to fix the date, if possible, when
Mr.. Terry is supposed to have used
some tart remarks in the presence of
and directed to Mrs. Gaskell. Evi-
IDENTIFY the date was not the one previ-,
ously given. Mr.. Gaskelll acknowledged
that he knew Mr.. Terry was Chica-
go & Northwestern engineer and kept
a close record of his time. Some con-
versation had been had with his attor-
ney about that date in June.
Medicine Exhibited
Frank Whitman, the South Side
druggist, was next called by attorney
Thomas. Mr.. Whitman said that he
knew Mr.. Stetter and that he purchas-
ed two packages of medicine at the
store on the evening Of Nov.
20. The medicine was in small box
and also in a bottle, las exhibited in the
court room. Some had been re-
moved. Mr.. Whitman knew it was
purchased at the Whitman store by
the prescription number. 1t was put
up by his niece, Miss Whitman.
All this juncture Mr.. Stetter was in
vied into the court room and was
identified by the witness on the stand.
Mr.. Stetter wore light suit, is said to
be about 20 years of age mas dark hair
and is of slender build.
Heard Tart Remarks.
Mrs. X. w. Peck, whose husband is
at the Gaskell Tin shop, said
that she was with Mrs. Gaskell when
Mr.. Terry uttered some insulting re-
marks: At another time she was with
Mis- Gaskell when she claimed that
Mr.. Terry said, "Hello, you sports,"
or words to That effect. Mrs. Peck
said that she was frieu y with Mrs.
Gaskell, did not see her every day,
went riding with her but had not
talked the fracas over with her. She
knew about it, however. When Mrs.
Peck was asked if she liked the Terrys
she said that she did not dislike them
because she did not know them. She
