"Did you recognize the body when you came up?"
"Yes."
"Did you have any reason for refraining from so stating?"
"I was shocked and startled to see who the man was. I had no definite reason, either for speaking or for silence."
"What were your personal relations with Mr. Fullerton?"
"We were not friendly."
"When did you speak to him last?"
"Yesterday morning, in the Court House."
"What was the nature of your conversation at that time?"
"It was of rather a violent nature," said Lawrence, with the slightest drawl. "I had occasion to slap his face."
