HRS. GALLOP ON WITNESS STAND Denies Evidence ence Adduced by Prosecution in Murder "Trial Roberbal, Que., July 16.--Emily Sprague Gallop, whose re- -trial on a charge of murdering her husband who died at Ile Maligne on August 6, 1926 under circumstances sug- gesting strychnine poisoning, is , nearing its close, took the witness- stand in her own behalf Wednes- day and gabe a denial to all the evidence adduced by the prosecu- tion. Abraham Gallop, tH9 dead man, was a native of Kingsclear, N.B. Examination of his body following exhumation disclosed strychnine in the viscora, and this was given in testimony by Dr. Wil- frid Derome, medico-legal expert of Montreal. Bxamined by Me. Taschereau, Mrs. Gallop spoke of a ring which she had purchased following her husband's death. This was a '""keeper" (jonc) and it had been her intention to give it to the present Madame Rodrigue Simp- son. Testimony for the prosecu- tion sought to bring out that the ring was to be employed at the marriage of Mrs. Gallop and Walt- er Simpson, a man who had been a boarder at the Gallop home and who testified that Mrs. Gallop had asked him to marry her. Mrs. Gallop declared that she had al- ways had much syfpathy for the Roman Catholics. Her parents were Protestants and her husband She had often been Pain? Gas? Can't Eat? ges There is no other medicine like: yospusts, She was married to him at the age of 18 and they had al- ways lived together. There had not been much affection between them, however. They led a life that was almost pagan. There was always drink in the home. She had the greatest interest in living with her husband because he gave her everything she desired. The witness admitted that she had been intimate with Simpson before her husband's death, but she had tried several times to stifle her af- 77) es for Simpson. There was a good deal of whisky selling going on at St. Joseph | J 1 {'Alma in 1925 and her husband frequently bought whisky when he present at Roman Catholic worship because she had a brother and sister who had married: Roman Catholics. She had eventually de- cided to change her religion as soon as the occasion presented it- self. When she visited Quebec to appear beore the attorney-general with regard to the autopsy on her hushand's body, she had stopped at Ste. Anne de Beaupre and there «"e had been confirmed and bap- ized. Mrs. Gallop denied that during her journey to Matadogan and Moneton, N.B., with Walter Simp- son she had spoken to him of mar- riage. "What had I to except of a man who could hardly keep himself?" she asked. "I had to maintain myself fad my mother as well as two children whom I adopted." Heavy Drinker Simpson drank a great deal, she said. During this trip he had been drinking." She had never told Simpson or anyone else that she had poisoned her husband. Simp- son's eyidence regarding the ring was falsé she declared. Abraham Gallop had been good to her in all being done in the rooms. ; MOTHER: -- Fletcher's Castoria is especially pre- pared to relieve Infants in arms and Children all ages of Constipation, Flatulency, Wind Colic and Diarrhea; allaying Feverishness arising therefrom, and, by regulating the Stomach and Bowels, aids the assimilation of Food; giving natural sleep.

She was positive that at midday on August 5, the day prior. to. her husband's death, an automobile had driven up to her hovnse and the driver had en- tered along with Abraham Gallop. Her husband had demanded mon- ey to buy a bottle. He had not dined there this midday: He open- ed the strychnine bottle which she had placed in her cupboard and put part of it aside to kill vermin. Her husband had drunk some beer at that time. After his departure for work she discovered an empty beer glass on the table. To Mr. Bienvenu, Mrs. Ga'lon declared that her. husband had stayed in the house for 20 minutes at midday, August 5. During this time the man from whom he had honeht the drink stayed at the rear of the house. It was then that her husband had told her to send the strychnine to Pitre Blut- yeau. She had not had strychnine when she had previously written to Blutean. Her husband died 'on the Thursday; he had intended ening hunting on the Saturday. She denied having said that Gallop anffered from heart, disease, al- though she sald that her mother- in-law 80 suffered. Abraham Gal- lop had suffered from stomach ail- ments, particularly in. the six months prior to his death. He had . weakened a great deal. "How was it that your husband { took out a $2,000 insurance policy on June 3?" asked Maitre Bien- venu. "He did not undergo a medical examination " replied Mrs. Gallop. The policy, however, the questions "Do you enjoy present health?" said Me Bienvenu. The answer had been written "Yes." "Do you use strong drink?" "No." "l advised my husband to take this policy if it was more ' advan- tageous,"" declared Mrs. Gallop. "I did not inform M. Gignac (the insurance salesman) of the state of health of my husband." Mrs. Gallop denied the evidence of Irene Renaud to the effect that in the prison at Quebec she had asked Irene Renaud to write to Arthur Viau, of Montreal, who sold liquor in 1925 at Alma. to come to Roberval to swear that it was he who had sold a bottle of liquor to Gallop on August 5, and she also denied that in return for this service she had promised to give Irene Renaud her furs. Several other witnesses were heard and the court adjourned. Two witnesses remain to be heard and the case will go to the jury. FLESH AND BLOOD GIFT FOR FRIEND Wounded Men Bound To- gether for Seven Weeks London, July 16.--How two wounded soldiers lay joined togeth- er for two periods totalling seven weeks while one of them gave his flesh and blood to save another, is described by Mrs. Aaa Wray, in her annual letter to .he helpers at Queen Mary's Hospital, Roehamp- ton. She describes it as ome of the most heroic acyions imaginable. "One man," she writes, 'was undergoing an operation for a flesh graft on his leg from another part of his body. - It proved satisfactory, as he is an extremely healthy man. Second Ordeal "Another patient, also going a flesh graft, was delicate, and could make no progress, 80 the healthy man offered to give him his blool and his flesh as a graft, and for three weeks those two men lay joined together. "Unhappily however, they moved in their sleep, and this made the result fruitless. "But this noble man again gave himself, and they were rejoined, this time being bound together by thick plaster of Paris, so that mov- ing was impossible. For over four weeks these men lay there, never able to move, and last week they were separated. I wonder if any medal is good enough for that unselfish man, who thinks noth- ing of his great sacrifice? "The delicate man looks a new creature, and his life has gained fresh strength and vigor."
