were met by James Fosburg and where
they saw Mrs. Robert 8.1l‘osburg on

lor Robert B. ll'osburg. Beatrice and
Miss Sheldon came down stairs and
the visitors were told what had hap-
pened. The witness remained until

Crosby the Witness said she had nev-

night it occurred. She did not recall
that she saw officer Flynn when he
came to tho Fosburgh house. She
