"I enter an objection, Mr. Master, to hearing any testimony by Mrs.— b1 Mr. Roti land's witness. It is im- possible that she has any direct know- ledge of this action.

I have subpoenaed him as a possible witness. Instantly, Mr. Williard leapt to his feet, and extended both arms; his flushed features ruddy with anger, he trembled in agitation. "Mr, Master, I insist this entire proceeding is irrevelant and inadmiss- ible!" he cried Hoarsely. "It's a put- up -job to attack my sister and sully her reputation, because she has ex- posed her husband's infidelity with Miss Edmond and established her right to a divorce. There isn't a word of truth in it -1" His opponent rose just as quickly. "Mr, Williard is evidently permit- ting himself to be carried away by his personal prejudice in the case. Be- cause he happens to be Mrs, Row land's brother as well as her repre- sentative is no excuse for his claim- ing dishonesty on the' part of—" The crash of Mr. Williard's fist on the tabletop punctuated his reply, "My relationship to my sister is a private matter, which has no connec- tion with the merits of my claim," he declared, vehemently. "I protest the introduction of personalities and;de- rnand an apology for Mr. Trumbull'S insult!" "And I demand, Mr, Dawson," Mr. Trumbull retaliated hotly, "that Mr, Williard's accusation, imputing chi- canery to the defense 'be stricken from the record. It is his offense; he owes tee an apology for his attack on my integrity." "I ilicln't say, Mr, Master, that Mr, Teombttll's participation in this fraud "As I started to say, I ask that the witness be excluded." Frowning, Mr. Dawson pondered the request, then shook his'head. "I cannot'allow the objection, Mr, Williard,' 'he decreed, "as there is no concrete evidence of her bias. If she is prejudiced you will be able to dis- credit her, after she has been ques- tioned.... You may bring your wit- ness in, Mr. Trumbull."
