Did he speak to you?—He asked me where I had been, or where I was going, or something of that kind.
Did you answer him? Yes, I passed some remark.
Did the man go out when you went out?—Yes, he followed me out.
Do you mean, on your oath, to say that you did not see the prisoner, and that he did not tell you he would come to see you the next night?—No, he did not.
Did he say anything to you?—Nothing particular, because I did not take any notice of him.
Not after you left the public-house?—I did not speak to him after leaving the public-house.
Did you think at the time that it might have been the prisoner?—I had not the slightest thought. I had not been in the fair that night. I passed by. I might have said to Mrs. Redfern that I had been. I had not been in any public-house before going into the “Stag.” I had previously been to the house of some friends of mine named Muddiman.
Did you tell Peace that you were going there?—Witness: What had he to do with it?
Answer the question.—Mr. Muddiman does not live at Sharrow.
Will you swear you did not tell him that?—I did not. I did not see the prisoner at all.
