Her youngest child, a boil. died ayear
ago last M l.y. at the age of nine
months. Bullock was born In
Benton Harbor. Mich, where they
were married. Hei‘ husband was then
preaching, having Just returned from
his work In Jamaica._ They traveled
that summer and fail and in the win-
ter went to Ohio. where she was un
able to accompany him by reason of
a sore foot. which made it Impossible
for her to wear a shoe. In the spring
of 1903 she went to her sister a, where
was born.
The witness then detailed their sub-
sequent life, until. in January, 1900,
they came in Stratford where Mrl
Bullock took charge of the Neighbor-
hood church.
She was shown drawings of the in-
terior of their home. which she said
were correct, and was asked to de-
scribe to the jury the layout and the
furnishings of the rooms on either
floor She said that it was a double
house, one side being exactly the
same as the other‘ln the matter of
rooms. 0n the first door, she said.
there were a long ball, the parlor,
dining room, kitchen and pantry; on
the second floor, a sewing room was
over the front of the long ball, while
at the front of the house was the
study, then her bedroom. and last the
children's bedroom. The fittings of
each of these rooms on the second
floor were described.
Then passing to her work, in con-
junction with Mr. Bullock's pastor-
ate, she was asked to detail her du—
ties, and said that most of the time
since she had lived In Stratlord she
had been in the choir of the church
She had been secretary of the Ladies'
auxiliary from January to May, 1902:
during the winter of 190122 she taught
a gymnasium class connected with the
church, taught In the Sunday school.
and a young ladies Bible class. and
most of the time was the superlnten
dent of the primary department of the
Sunday school Site also taught the
arithmetic class in the night school
during the winter of 1902-.3 She ties;
cribed the Ladies’ auxiliary and the
Literary society. and said that these,
as well as the night helical. were or-
ganized by Mr. Bullock.
She said that the night school, when
It was first organized. met twice a
week, Tuesdays and Fridays, until
the Christmas holidays. Then it that
only once a week. For a while she
did not go to the night school until
8:30, in order to take her class. and
she went home at 9. Then some of
the pupils wanted to take up extra
work, and she went 2eariier, giving
them an extra half hour‘s coaching.
She employed a servant, or maid,
part of the time In 1902. The baby
was born Aug. 4, 1902. and the girl
left her when the baby was a week
old. After that she did, not get one
regularly without help'except from
the day before Thanksgiving until Jan-
uary 20. During that time however,
she continued her duties at the night
school, Mrs. C. W Biakeslee saving
with the children while she was away.
She stated emphatically that ,dur-
log all that time. from before
Thanksgiving until January 20. Balls
Shaller was never at the hOuss with
the children, but that Mrs. Blakeslee‘
invariably was the attendant.
Referring to the night of January 13.
when the alleged assault is said to
have occurred. Mrs. Bullock said that
she went to the night school, as usual,
Mrs. Blakeslee staying with the chil~
dren. When Mrs. Biakeslee came at
the usual time. Mrs. Bullock apoio~
gized for not having secured a maid,
but that was the last night Mrs.
Blakeslee had to stay, as the maid
came the following Tuesday, January
Mrs. Bullock attended her arithme-
tic class, reaching there just in time
at 8:30, as the drawing class was dis
missing. Mr. Bullock was at the
church. but not‘engaged In work. she
attended to her~ class. and directly
thereafter went to her home, reaching
there not later than 9:10. Mr. Bul»

At. this point, the court adjourned
for dinner, or until 2:16.
When the court reassembled, Mrs.
Bullock resumed her testimony. She
said In substance:
During January. Miss Shaller came
to see me several times on Wed
nesday evenings, when there fore
prayer meetings in the church, and a
number of times spent the evening
with me. Mr, Bullock was Invarlabiy
at the chureh on these evenings.
Jan. 16 I saw her at the lhimble par-
ty of Mrs Hubbard's She had been
to the house that morning. and of-
fered to stay with the baby that I
might go If I WIS-ted. I told her that
Mrs Blukeslee was to stay with the
baby. Then she said she would stay
as long as she could, and would help
me. We went Into the kitchen and
washed the baby’s bottles I asked
her If she was not going to the party
herself. and she said she didn't know.
Site did not believe she would. I
‘ asked, I11 fact I begged her to go. and
we talked as to what car we should
take. I said I would take it certain
car If I could, and she said that if
she went she would take the same
car,.and we would go together. I
could not take that ear. but went on
a later one, and when I arrived found
her there

“I spoke to her about not being at

was the reason. she said, why she
had not beenlto see me. I spoke of
the matter of her leaving the choir.
