William Browa came sometimes. He used to come to run errands and do some outside chores. He was Mc. Sutherland’s servant man. He cut the front lawn and sometimes shoveled out the snow. She nevertold me what she sent him todo. I sawJ.D.McLeod’s man, Mr. Wiliams, and Minis‘er McLeod and Mrs. Weeks’ brother there.

Some days he would be there and some nights he would be there. I would be out most every night myself. I alwiys made it a rule to be home by ten o'clock. 1 have seen Mr. Sutherland go out of the house afterl came home. Mrs. Sutherland and Mrs. Weeks were friendly when I first went there.

Torspay, March 4.

W. F. Best, (sworn)—Examined by Mr. Malcolm McLeod. I hive experimented with respect to ** Rough on Rats” since I gave my evidence vesterday. I bought two packages —one at Hughes’ and one at Johnson’s. On opening the packages and comparing the color of the two I foand that there was cousider- able difference in color. ‘Lhe contents of the package that I received from Hughes’ drug store was much lighter in color thin the package I got at Johnson's, I next dissolved some of the contents of the Hughes package— boiled it in water, 24 grains. After boiling this for half an hour, 1 poured the water con- taining the dissolved ** Rough on Rats” into

bottle nearly full of whiskey. The “* Rough on Rats” remained dissolved I putin two fluid ounces which dissolved

twenty-four grains. It remained in solution and is stillin solution. I took asecon4 bottle of whiskey and added to it 12 grains of ‘*Rough on Rats” out of the Hughes package. I gave the bottle a shake and stood it to one side, After twerty minutes I tested the whiskey and found traces of arsenic. I then poured off the greater part of the whiskey nati] there was only a small quantity of whis- key standing over the sediment. I washed this into a filter and dried the filter and sediment; Then I removed the sediment from the filter paper and weighed it. I found that the sediment weighed ten grains. On comparing the color of the sediment with the sediment which was sent to me at St. John, I found that they were very similar in color and general appearance. The sediment from the last bottle which I examined being very slightly darker in the color than the other. [I next took 50 millograms (2 grains} weight of “Rough on Rats” from the Hughes’ package, placed this in a glass tube, and heated it. A large quantity of white deposit was found ju the upper partof the tube, and a small dark- colored mass remained in the bottom of the tube. This small dark-colored mass gathered together in the form of a small pellet which was loose in the bottom of the tube. I then took this small pellett out and weighed it. Of course, the balance was not as fine as 1 aim accustomed to, but 1 am able to say that the weight of this dark-colored residue was equal to the one hundredth of the original weight of ‘* Rough on Rats” taken. In other words, the weight of the white substance was 99 parts of a 100. I then tested the white deposit and found it to be arsenic. Practically, ** Rough on Rats” is allarsenic. I do not know what

the dark substance is, The dried residue owas very much lighter’ in color than the ‘‘Rough on _— Rats.”

I can only say that having found that ‘Rough on Rats” loses part of its color after being in whiskey fora certain lengthof time, I would infer that if it remained a longer time in the whiskey it would lose more of itscolor. The difference in color between the sediment I re- ceived at St. John,and that which I examined yesterday might be due to that fact. I pro- duce sample of sediment obtained from ** Rough on Rats.” I produce also the powder I received at St. John.

To Mr. Peters—The powder which was sent to me at St. John might have been **Rough on Rats.” I don't say posi- tively that it was ‘*Rough on Rats.”

Joux WHILtIAMs, (sworn)—Examined by Mr. Malcolin McLeod--I know Mrs. Weeks. I drove her upto the Capes. It was on Sat- urday morning. We left between one and two o'clock in the morning. Jt was the Saturday after the election. It was about 12

She said it was hard for her to have to leave through other people. She said it was not for her own sake she was going away, but to save others—she said Mr. Sutherland. 1 told her she was very foolish. I had heard about Mrs. Sutherland being poisoned. I heard on Friday, 1 think. She seemed very quiet-

very sad. We did not converse much. She said that she had not anything at all to do with it. She had evidently heard about the poisoning. She said something about going away —that it would save alithe talk. There has been talk about her and Sutherland. I did not ask her what she meant. We got up to the Capes about daylight and stopped at Surang’s. I went to the barn and then came

back again She was talking with Mr. Strang. I heard her ask Mr. Strang when the boats would leave. de said the boats

were all on the other side, except the Opposi- tion boat—run by the Bells. We

they had the sleigh ready to go to the shore. She said that she wanted to get across. ‘Lhey said that there were a lot of agents going but they would take her, but they would have to leave some of the lug- gage. They hesitated a little about taking her. They told me that a couple of the agents did not go. ‘The agents kicked up a bit vf a row about it. There was no name given atall. I represented her as my wife that evening, after she was probably on the other side. 1 did it as ajoke. 1 did not hear any enquiries as to who she was before she went. One of the crew was bound to take her. She was into the boat before the agents came. They want- ed her to get out. They acted pretty mear. {knew she was bound to get over if she could. I did not ask her why she could not stay tillthe next day. She knew about the poisoning before she left home. I left thie shore about half-past nine, and left the capes abont five in the evening. It was not a dark night. I arrived here at five minutes to ten. 1 heard that the telegraph wires were cut that night. Idid not doit. I do not know who did. I drove to Mr. Robbins’ livery stable. L did not pay for the horse. I have seen Mrs. Weeks since she came back and bave spoken to her. Annie Gillespie is living with her now. I have been there once or twice a day since she came back. The boatmen took her as a mat- ter of course. I did not hear her say that she was sick. She was clothed to keep her self warm. I cannotsay whether or not she was clothed to conceal herself. She had a man’s fur coat on. I heard the coat was got at the cloth mills depot. Dave MacKay has charge of the store. I think the coat was in the sleigh when MacKay bronght the sleigh to me. She had it on when she came out of the honse. I had not breakfast before the boat left. She had acup of tes at Beli’s before she left. I did not say she was my wife until the evening. I went into Harriagton’s. I do not think I told them she was my wife. I told Muoncey in the evening. The fare for her pas- sage was double I think. The agents were noisy. She asked the man at the boat how much it would be, and he said $25. She said she wou'd take the boat. The ordinary fare for men was $2. [ was not paid for taking her up. Idid not want pay. She was very kind tome. Cornwall is seven or eight miles from here. It would take about an hour io drive from there.

To Mr. Peters—Mrs. Weeks has has been a near neighbor of ours. Mrs. Weeks nursed my wife when she was sick—night and day. She got nothing for it. She was there when I had no one in the house and my wife was not expected to live.” She also took soup and jel- lies and things of that kind to my _ wife. was nct able topay a nurse. She came in as afriend. Mrs. Weeks has always been a good, kind friend to me. If1 got a chance to return the kindness I would do so, That was why I wenttothe Capes. The first I heard of Mrs. Weeks going away was on Friday afternoon. She intimated te me that if she wanted to go away, would | drive her ? I told her that 1 would. I had nothing to do with sending her away. I was merely the

driver. She told me that she had got an an- onymous letter. She didn’t say where she got it. I wasn't anxious to let it be known

who she was, I didn’t care—neither did she. She was dressed in a man’s coat. I had an extra coat on myself. It was a cold pight. The men insisted on going in the boat a!- though she was there ahead of them. There wasonly one boat, They saidit would be $20.

To Mr. M. McLeod.—She told me the day before that she was goingaway. It was in the afternoon at my hot-house. She asked if she wanted to go would I drive her. She was talking of other matters. She didn’t say where she was going, and I didn’t ask her.

To the Magistrate.—Five of the agents went in the boat with her, and I believe that one or two of them stayed behind. 1 do not know what she paid for being taken over.

Joun D. Mclrop (sworn)—Examined by Mr. M. MeLeod.—I know Mrs. Weeks; have known her for some years, I also know Mr. Sutherland. I heard of the poisoning. I remember the day that Mrs. Weeks went away. I saw her on the Friday before at my shop. She was marketing. She asked for seme money to pay a smill bill. The.clerk handed ker two ten dollar bills. She handed one back. I[ dont think that day, I had any conversation about the poisoning. The day before Mrs, Weeks came into my office and showed me a note, signed “A Friend,” ad- vising her to leave the country at once, and saying that as she had frieuds abroad she had better go to them, as she was accused of poisoning Mrs. Sutherland, and that she would be arrested before 12 o'clock the next day. That wasthe purport of it. She asked me what I would advise her to do. I told her to go home, that I thought it was sume one trying to scare her. That was on Thursday. Later or, on Friday (about 12 o’clock) I met her at Dr. Dodd’s corner. She had a sleigh there,and was just getting into it. I drove up the street with her. I think that she stopped at Ridgeway’s flower -hovge. left her there and went on to Mr. Su‘ hérland’s house. He was in bed, not very well. On the way up the street, I told her that I hid made

enquiry about Mr. Sutherland and he was sick After I[ left her I went to see Mr. Sutherland. I wanted to hear something

also told her to show it to the doctor, I then went away with my _ sister Maggie. 1 never saw the bottie afterwards. I heard it was arsenic the day of the election. My sister, Mrs. Sutherland, told me in the morning, She was still in bed. I went down to see Dr. John- son about the affair. I saw him in his office alone about one o'clock. He asked me to fetch my uncle in to see him about it. I brought him in at seven that evening. ‘My uncle and 1 met Dr. Johnson in his office and talked the matter over. M uncle wept up to see Mrs. Sutherlond that day. I went with him. He went up stairs and [ stayed down. He went back to Dr. Johnson's office. 1 waited outside for him. Nothing more was done that day. On the next day a man called and told meI was wanted at Dr. Johnson’s. Mr. Sutherland was there when [ went in, my uncle, Donald Farquharson, Dave McKay and Mr. Davies. Dr. Laylor came inafterwards. This be at about two o'clock in the afternoon of Friday. The matter was talked over. They met for that purpose. It was decided Mr. Sutherland, with Dr, Johnson, was to see the Attorney General, and Mr. Sutherland was to state thefactsto him. I rutterland made this proposition himself. I then went home. I heard that Mrs. Weeks had run away about three o’clock on the fol- lowing Monday. I know David McKay. I think that atthe meeting in Dr. Johnson’s office someone asked who was suspected of the poisoning, but no names were mentioned, Mrs. Weeks’ name was not mentioned that I heard. Llhad not seen my sister for about three months before the 2nd of January, When I saw her she complained of pains in her feet, saying that she could not sleep with- out taking a skeping draught. I also saw her at dinner time onthe 3rd of January. No allusion was then made to the whiskey bottle. l was only inher room about five or ten minutes. I asked how she was.

To Mr. Peters.—I went there twice on the 3rd of January, between ]2 and 1 o’clock, and

in the night. Lhe doctor was there be- fore my first visit on that day. There was no talk of the sediment. If

she discovered it before, she did not mention it tome, Later on, in the evening at 10, she showed the bottle with the sedi. mentin it to me. I did not see another bottle of whick sy ther>, My siste rj Maggie was there before I was that evening. She was in the house while I was there. When Mrs. Sutherland called my attention to the sediment my sister Maggie was down stairs getting ready to go home. 1 might have been ln my sister's room two or three times that evening—perhaps only once, or perhaps twice, I do not remember particularly who were there at the time, except old Mrs. Sutherland, Mrs. Sutherland, myself, and the children. There was 10 suggestion made as to who did the poisoning at the meeting in Dr. Johnson's office. My attention was called to Mrs. Weeks’ leaving the town, aud that there wes something suspicious look-

ing about it.” There was word ieft at our place that I was wanted at the Magistrate's

Otfice, and I went there. I was there told about Mrs. Weeks leaving the Isiand, of the poisoning and that some steps should .be taken in the matter. I was asked if I was going to take any steps—that some person had to start it. I gave no deci- sion then—saying I wanted to think over the matter, I did not afterwards lay the intorma- tion. I took time to think over the matter. To Mr. McLeod—I wented to see Dr. Johnson before I took action in the matter. This was on the Monday following Mra. Weeks’ de- parture—aloat five or six in the afternoon.
