"No, sir. Dr. Medjora said that he would stay until nine o'clock, and that I might go out for some fresh air."
"Did you do so?"
"Yes, sir. I was glad to go."
"Did you not consider it wrong to leave your patient?"
"Why, no, sir. She was getting better, and besides, Dr. Medjora being a physician could care for her as well as I could."
"When you went out did you state when you would return?"
"Yes. I said I would be back at nine o'clock."
"As a matter of fact, when did you return?"
"About half-past eight. It was eight o'clock when I left my home."
"Did you go at once to your patient's room?"
