EXAMINATION OF MRS. DYSON.
The Stipendiary: I think enough has been gone into for the purposes of the preliminary examination. You can reserve the rest for the trial. I consider that enough has been gone into for the purpose of the preliminary examination.
Mr. Clegg: Supposing that at the trial this man is not defended—a state of things which is not at all unlikely.
The Stipendiary: You know very well that in that case the judge would order some learned counsel to defend the prisoner. I am not going to deal with a state of circumstances that may arise at the trial. It would be presumption in me to provide for want of justice before the judges.
Mr. Clegg: This is a preliminary inquiry, and I can put in whatever I think is for the benefit of the prisoner. Though it is only a preliminary inquiry I am bound to do it.
The Stipendiary: I rule that sufficient has been asked about those lettters.
Mr. Clegg: I shall persist in asking these questions until I am stopped.
The Stipendiary: Then I stop them now. You have quite enough for your purpose.
Mr. Clegg: I don’t think I have.
