M. Labori.—“This document was a part of the Esterhazy file. I ask the court to ask M. Ravary, who conducted the examination, what this document was.”
M. Ravary.—“As to that, I am completely ignorant.”
M. Labori.—“That is enough; I am satisfied.”
M. Clemenceau.—“The witness said in his report that there was a file of documents open on Colonel Picquart’s desk. I should like to know if he maintains that declaration.”
M. Ravary—“It was so stated in the testimony of either Colonel Henry or M. Gribelin.”
M. Clemenceau.—“I remind the court that M. Gribelin said that there was a file of documents in an envelope. Colonel Henry said the same thing, and so I ask the court to recall M. Gribelin.”
M. Ravary.—“I said either M. Gribelin or Colonel Henry.”
M. Gribelin, being recalled testified as follows: “What I said was that the documents were contained in a yellow envelope; they were not scattered; I even specified, in my written deposition, that they were not searching the documents.”
M. Ravary.—“My report is a sincere expression of the file of documents. Let the file be called for.”
M. Clemenceau.—“M. Gribelin says that the file was in an envelope.”
