I Mrs. ilerumlugs said she was a dressmaker.
On examining the slashed dress she ex-
I pressed t bo opinion that the rents bad been

I Mrs. llemmlngs was unable to appear as a
witness lu tho hollce Court, she explained, on

dress did not present such a dilapidated ttp
IH'srance when worn and asucd Mr. Town
