“Of course you don’t know. But you can make a guess. Come, give the court your estimate.”

“Not less than six feet, I should say. Probably more.”

“Did you see Adam Forbes’ horse—no, you told us that. But you saw my horse when you arrested me?”

“Yes.”

“Was my horse a small horse or a large one?”

“A small one.”

Johnny rose and strolled to the window.

“Well, about how high?”

“About fourteen hands. Possibly an inch more.”
