arrived in Los Angeles. Upon arrival, the
detective agency was directed to take up the
watch upon Somerset and Mrs. Gallagher,
and as soon as the situation warranted 1t
to notify Mr.. Gallagher. At a 80 a. m.
we received word from the detectives that
Somerset and Mrs. Gallagher had returned
to Somerset's house, that Mrs. Gallagher
had evidently retired for the night and
that Somerset lay on a couch or divan in
the livingroom, reading until about Ills
a. M. about 4 :25 he had extinguished the
lights and the house was in darkness.
with Mr.. Gallagher and a representa-
tive of the detective agency proceeded at
once to the vicinity of Somerset's house.
We got there just about 4 80 a. m. Mr.
Gallagher, Mr.. Duni and | went to the
front porch and rang the bell. Receiving
no response, Mr. Duni knocked loudly on
the front door. Again receiving no re-
spouse, Mr.. Duni called out Mr.. Somer-
sets name. Somerset was heard to reply:
Who's there?' Mr. Duni answered: It's
me anu L wait 10 SPEAK u yOu
Through the glass in the door we then
observed Somerset come out of the room
on the north side Of the house and APP
proach the front door. He was attred in
pajamas and bathrobe. Somerset opened
the door, and before he had opportunity
to ask any questions, Mr.. Gallagher, Mr..
Duni and | blocked the door and entered.
We Immediately walked past Somerset
into the room situated in the front part
of the house on the north side. Mrs Gal

she was dressed in her nightclothes.
"Mr Duni asked Mr.. Gallagher if the
lady was his wife and Mr. Gallagher said
she was. We then noticed that Mr. Som

in the room and his slippers were by the
bed. In our presence he took the slippers

between Mr.. Duni and Mr.. Somerset

"Thereupon Mr.. Duni suggested that we
visit the rest of the house in order that
we might see what, if any, other bedrooms
there were in the house and the condition

The house was a one-story, bungalow type
house. We entered the other bedroom
and ! personally saw that the bed was
undsturbed in any way There were
flowery sofa pillows piled in the middle
of the bed. As we entered this room
Somerset, who had slipped out of the other
room when Mr.. Duni suggested that we
go through the house, was actually in the
act of removing the sofa pillows from the
other bed, and not noticing us in the
doorway, ne attempted to disarrange the
covers. Shortly thereafter we left the
premises"
