Witness: Oh! but I knew my brother was very, very unhappy, and I knew I could cheer him and comfort him, and he was very, very dear to me.

Mr. Chesterton: Your visit had nothing to do with Rosa’s visit to London?

Witness: I did not know she was there.

Mr. Chesterton: Mr. Grewgious had not written and asked you to go?

Witness: No.

Mr. Chesterton: No reason?

Witness: Yes; the reason I have given you.

Mr. Chesterton: But there was no particular reason?

Witness: Is it not particular to go and cheer one who is closely bound to you?

Judge: I think the witness’s remark is quite clear. She says she had an impulse in an avowedly emotional atmosphere to go and see somebody.
