David N. Cnrvnlho, who lias studied
tin; drama of the luw courta keenlj in
scores of cnHCH In which ho linn h.nl
n vital Intercut .described Mrs. Still
man, to-day as "tho most remarkable
witness I over toiw In my life."
"It was oppnrent to mc, when Col.
Hand was asking her questions with
which to establish a baMs for tlie
testimony Leigh was to bo called to
give," Mr. Cnrvnlho said, "that she
knew what tho questloni wcro for.
Sho met thent with n ernclons Htnlle.
Col. Hand told her ho desired ppeci
mens of her handwrltliur In certain
sentences. A little box of pen point
and nn assortment of holders was of
fered to her.
" 'I Uko a stub pen,' -die said, as
sho took tho box, very much as though
sho had been telling ono sho liked
cream or lemon In her ten. She
picked tho points over. Having one
to her liking, sho titled It to a holder.
Then sho smilingly asked for a match.
Sho lighted It and burned tho lacnicr
coat off the metal of tho point, so the
Ink would flow more evenly. With a
grave courteous smllo sho looked up
for direction ns to what to write.
"It wus brcjith-tnklng to mc. I for
tho moment, forgot my own part of
tho coso In my admiration ot the
woman. Never, In pcorcs of trials,
liavo I ever seen a witness do u thins
