Prisoner. "In the description you have given of your movements on the night of this fatal day, you say that, upon hearing the street door open and close, you came out of your bedroom, and leaning over the balustrade, looked down into the hall?"
Witness. "Yes, that is true."
Prisoner. "And that you saw me putting out the gas in the hall?"
Witness. "Yes."
Prisoner. "You are certain it was I?"
Witness. "Yes. You had your ulster on, and as you had to stand on tiptoe to put out the gas, your face was raised to the light, and I saw it plainly."
Prisoner. "You saw my face plainly?"
Witness. "As plainly as I see it now."
Prisoner (with a movement of impatience). "I have no further questions to ask you."
The Court then adjourned.
