Counsel: "But you took it as a proof that it really was Evelina Reierson?"

Witness: "Yes, but I am not sure that it was she, after all, for she had a veil on, and then I don't know Evelina Reierson so very well."

Counsel: "How was the lady dressed?"

Witness: "She had on a green hat with a feather in it, and a jacket braided in front and at the back."

Counsel: "Do you remember this distinctly?"

Witness: "Yes, I am not so unaccustomed to using my eyes, and I thought it best to notice her dress, in case the police should ask me about the matter, later on."

Counsel: "What time was it when the lady visited you?"

Witness: "It must have been twenty minutes past five when she came, for she was with me a quarter of an hour, and when she left it was twenty-five minutes to six."

Counsel: "Was it also with regard to the possibility of inquiries from the police that you looked at the clock when the lady left you?"

Witness: "Yes."
