"Yes. I thought it was wine. Also there was a little bottle of laudanum."
"Now, if this girl had taken laudanum, what would have been the condition of the pupils of her eyes?"
"They would have been very much contracted."
By Mr. O'Donnell: "And tell us, had she a cut on the inside of the thigh, running crosswise?"
"Yes, she had such a cut."
"There were many cuts, altogether?"
"I don't recall precisely how many."
Mr. O'Donnell dramatically seized Ella Gingles by the hand, almost dragged her to the witness chair, and then demanded explosively:
"Did you see this cut, and this one, and that one and that one? Did you really see any cuts?"
