"Did you know that Miss Gingles was starving between January 4 and February 16?"
"Yes; I heard she was hungry."
"Did you give her anything to eat?"
"Yes; several times I gave her coffee and toast. I knew she had no money."
"You would have given her money if you knew she were starving in your home?"
"I had no money, but I didn't take her room money."
A sharp clash took place between Attorney O'Donnell and Judge Brentano when the lawyer objected to one of Prosecutor Short's rapid-fire questions.
"I'll rule it out if you are invoking the strict rules of evidence, but it is pretty late to invoke them now," said Judge Brentano.
"I'll invoke the rule and take exception to the court's remark," answered the attorney.
