Justice FitzGerald overruled the ob-
jection, and the negative was accepted
Mr. Jerome then offered
In evidence a photographic print from

Mr. Dclinas also objected to the in-
midnciion of the print. He said the
photographic copy of the affidavit

and had no opportunity either to aiiirin
or to deny her signature. He added
that the copy of a paper was not com-
petent evidence on whit'il to contradict
