Stunned by the terrible onslaught of
the prosecutor, Mrs. Patterson was
taken from the witness chair in the
middle of the afternoon, unable to an

attorneys, who took her for redirect
examination.
With terrible directness, the pros
ecutor tore into the direct testimony
of the defense by instituting a court
room scene, giving a series of pictures
that depicted the tragedy, performed
by living beings.
"Show me how the shooting oc-
cured" said the prosecutor. Assume
the position in which you say you
Mrs. Patterson obeyed taking posi-

tor stood over her, his right hand up
raised to strike a blow. He was fac
