 Redirect examination of Mrs. Hoov- CT by County Attorney Attorney John r. Ross, in charge of the prosecution, was completed during the first few minutes of court yesterday. Ross questions and Mrs. Hoovers answers tended to clarify questions and an swers on the previous day regarding a visit Mrs. Hoover made to Benson last spring. Mrs. Hoover said she had merely driven a borrowed auto mobile from Wilcox to Benson, stop ping near Bennett's garage. She was not detained by Bennett, nor did she have any trouble with him at that time, she said.

 Henry Etz, Benson butcher, was the next witness called by the state. Be tween 10 and II o'clock on the morn ing of January 9, Etz testified, Ben ne stopped him as he was driving through Benson and said: If you'll take me down to the stockyards IT give you a good drink of whiskey."
