CURIOUS TO HEAR, GOULD.
+ Curiosity to hear the testimony Of

room. A large number of women were
present. Although Mrs. Gould kept
her thick veil over her face, she peered
at the witnesses attentively.s
Harry Turner, a florist at Castle
Gould, was the first witness called and
told of several occasions when he hal
seen Mrs. Gould at the estate decidedly
