The Attorney-General.—“Incidents may arise. The general had better remain in the court-room.”
The Judge.—“Then, General, be good enough to remain in the court-room.”
General de Pellieux.—“I remain at the disposition of the court and the jury.”
M. Labori.—“As for me, I ask that it be recorded that the court has asked me a question, and then deprived me of the floor before I had replied.”
The Judge.—“But I have not deprived you of the floor. I deprived you of the floor when you were going to argue.”
M. Labori.—“I have not argued.”
The Judge.—“This is too much.”
M. Labori.—“You had deprived me of the floor.”
The Judge.—“I did so because you desired to argue; because it is my right; because it is my duty.”
M. Labori.—“It relates to a question.”
