"Last night. I knew it would be needed to-day."
"What did you do with it?"
"I left it on my desk. This morning I took it into the studio, and when the moment arrived, I gave it to the actor who took it to Miss Morton."
"Was he out of your sight, after you gave him the telegram?"
"No. He took it and walked right on the scene."
"Then he couldn't have substituted another for it?"
"No. It would have been impossible, unless he used sleight of hand."
"Before you gave the man the telegram where was it?"
"In my coat pocket."
"No chance, I suppose, of anyone having taken it out and substituting another."
