not have been prior to the fire. nor
could Il have been placed there after
Its cxtinguishmcnt. The fires avoided
starting before witnesses, and there
was no occult reason for 30 doing and
avoided all parts OF the dining room
and parlor visible from the meeting
place In the kitchen. An odorlcss. in
hammable liquid was found In bottle
on a beam, which produced the de-
scribcd effects on wet paper. Other
indicia were found pointing to tho
same conclusion. namely. that a per-
son Ave feet tall seoetvcly performed
the acts Ms opportunity offered.
THE various witnesses were I'M
doubtedly honest in believing that the
acts could not have been thus per-
formed, but my acquaintance with err
rors OF observation and OF memory on
the part OF intelligent persons dealing
with large number OF details in n
matter quite new TO them has often
demonstrated that such testimony may
be vitality in error. For example, n
was thought that a cushion which
some time before had been put up
stairs was placed on the bedstcad
downstairs by occult agency. But It
appears that the next preceding fire
was upstairs. making 1t likely that ar
opportunity was found in the interval
TO bring tho cushion down.

/ Ion that the girl was not mentally
culpable. She is mentally exceedingly

was the victim OF altered states"
