The girl Withdrew, casting a last fond
look at her lover, and the clerks voice
was heard summoning NJ. Pougeot.
The commissary appeared forthwith.
and, with all the authority of his office,
testified in confirmation of Alice's story.
There was no possible doubt that the
girl would have persisted in the flames
but for the heroism of Paul Coquenif.
Pougeot was followed by DIR. Du-
pratt, who ave evidence as to the re-
turn of Alice memory. He regarded
her case as one of the most remark

come under his observation. and he
declared, as an expert. that the girls
statements were absolutely worthy of
belief.

out.

ran through the room as the small
door opened, just under the painting of
