that there was no contract made with
her as far as could recall regarding
her work or pay. He said, however.
that he had several times seen his bro-
ther Ora give her money He said a
box of white powder was kept on the
kitchen shelf at his home. He did not
recall having seen Mrs. Manson give
his mother any of it on the day prev
ions to Mrs. Wilson's death, but said
that ahb had opportunity to do so with-
out his knowledge. Wilson said that
while Mrs. Manson lived in Willimsu-
tic he worked there. but that when he

threw up his job and lived at home.
He said he had never given his mother
any arsenic.

iled that he was a married man but
did not live with his wife. He was
accustomed to call Hrs. Manson "l fly.”
in reply to various questions Wilson

her three times at her request after
the death of his sister. Previous to
that time his sister used to buy the
drug for Mrs. Wilson Witness also
said that on one occasion his mother

a memorandum for fifteen or twenty
tents worth of arsenic which she wish-
cd him to buy.
