"Could you see the door of the study from your position in the drawing-room?"
"Yes." What was he getting at, anyway?
"So that you could see whether anyone came out of the study, or entered it after Mrs. Darwin?"
"Yes."
"Did anyone come out or go in?"
"No."
"You heard the evidence concerning the windows?"
"Yes."
"Do you still persist in saying there was someone else in the study?"
So that was it. He was trying to trap me into making a contradictory statement to pay up for my stubbornness concerning the study. But I had no intention of being trapped by him.
