Counsel: "You are six feet tall, I should say?"

Yollop: "Lacking a quarter of an inch."

Yollop: "I never was so surprised in my life."

Counsel, thunderously: "Answer my question!"

Yollop: "Well, I hit him and he fell."

Counsel: "Do you regard yourself as an experienced boxer?"

Yollop: "No, I don't."

Counsel: "Are you what may be termed a powerful man, able to strike a powerful blow with the fist?"

Yollop: "I don't know. The defendant can answer that question better than I can."
