DOROHESIER. N- B» April l_ Daniel Bannister. charged with the murder of Philip Lake, had not been in Lake's cabin the night the Pacific ‘Junction homesteade: met his death, ﬁancee Bannister, 15- year-old sister of the accused boy, testified today.

She did not think he knew any. thing more about the reason for the trip to Lake's than she did. the plump, blonde, who has testified for the crown against her other brother, Arthur, and her mother, Mrs. May Bannister, declared.

Monotonous with the repetition of evidence already given at tin preliminary hearing and at the trials of Arthur and Mrs. Barr- nlster, the day's sitting was en- livened only by clashes between tho chief crown counsel. P. J. Hughes, K.C., and defence counsel H. Murray Lambert, and Dr. J. W. Roussel, Montreal ballistics expm. and Mr. Lambert.

The defence law“ 1W1 lust be- gun his cross-examination of Dr. Roumel when he questioned his ability as an expert. Mr. Hughes jumped to his feat and 4o the aid of the witness.

“You won't allow the witness to answ the very questions you ask mm,- ne objected. "You aren't here w lecture him, but-to ask ques- tions."
