Witness. "His movements were very hurried, which I thought was due to the rain, and perhaps to his having had a little too much wine. He opened the door of the carriage quickly, and the lady jumped in, to avoid the rain, I suppose. My master got in quickly after her."
The Attorney-general. "But he gave you instructions?"
Witness. "All he said was, 'Home!'"
The Attorney-general. "Calmly?"
Witness. "No, sir. Although he only said one word, I noticed that his voice was thick. It was because of that I suspected he had taken a little too much wine."
The Attorney-general. "Did you observe that he had his ulster on?"
Witness. "Yes, he had it on."
The Attorney-general. "You drove home--and then?"
Witness. "My master got out, helped the lady out--no, I am making a mistake."
The Attorney-general. "Commence again."
