In conclusion. I have to say, in answer to questions put to me—

(1) That neither I nor my fellow-servant ever saw my master give Lady

Glyde any medicine himself.

(2) That he was never, to my knowledge and belief, left alone in the

room with Lady Glyde.

(3) That I am not able to say what caused the sudden fright, which

my mistress informed me had seized the lady on her first coming into

the house. The cause was never explained, either to me or to my

fellow-servant.

The above statement has been read over in my presence. I have nothing

to add to it, or to take away from it. I say, on my oath as a Christian

woman, this is the truth.
