Her husband was an assistant surveyor with Henry George Blakeley He had never made a home for witness, who lived with her mother. All the money which her husband had given her amounted to £3. On the other hand, her husband used to come and got money from witness. Then follows a long testimony of violence and abuse. AS TO MRS.

They shut the door, and witness did not see them again that night. On October 20, they went into the bedroom and put the lights out, leaving the door open. It was moonlight, and witness distinctly saw that there were two persons in the bed. On November 8 witness was off duty, and when she came home there was a terrible row in the place, Julius said, "Martyn, I will make you pay.". Julius subsequently asked witness for a statement, which she refused to give. A few days later, when she came back for her clothes and money, Julius refused to give her the money which amounted to L30, unless she gave a statement. His Honor: Did you get it? Witness: No; never. Witness said that subsequently she gave a statement. Mrs Julius carried revolvers, and told witness that she would shoot her if she told anything about her. Witness was not anxious to be mixed up in it. She gave a statement in the present case three or four months ago. George Alfred Whittlngton, an engine driver, said that he kept a store at Moore, near Esk, in 1903, next door to the Stanley Gates Hotel.
