“ Harrison — You have nothing to say here, sir. Deputy Coroner — Q. What did you pay Dr. Harrison for, to cure of dropsy, rheumatism, or what? A. She believed she was in the family way. Q. When you spent the evening with her in December last were you not in the room all alone with her? A. Not all the time; when I say she entered the parlor alone, I am not sure but the gentleman or the lady of the house came with her; I am not quite sure of that; please add to my statement that she told me the young man who was the cause of her trouble called on her in Brooklyn while she was there. ”
