that night for supper. I did not see him that night; it was my business
to make his bed. I got up on the Monday morning about seven, that was
the Sunday and Monday before he finally went off, I am sure; I usually
get up about seven. My master went out that morning before breakfast; my
husband went out about eight, and my master went out a little before
him; I did not see him go out nor hear him; I did not know he was out
till I let him in; I made his bed on the Sunday morning; I was up stairs
making his bed, and he went out, I looked out of the window and saw him
go; I made his bed on Monday, but that was not till after he came home,
which was about twelve o'clock; when I found he had been out, I went up
stairs immediately to make his bed." You will consider whether there is
any room for believing she might be correct, and that he might have lain
down upon his bed before she made it. "The bed appeared as usual, as if
it had been slept in on Sunday night; I and my husband slept in our bed,
and I made his bed on Monday as well as on Sunday. I remember how my
master was dressed on the Monday when he came home; he had a black coat
on; he had a bundle in his hand; I saw a part of a coat where the bundle
was open, a grey coat just where the knot was tied; my master continued
to sleep regularly at home til he finally went away."

Upon her cross-examination she says, "my master had no other man
servant but my husband; he used to wait upon him, and do any thing he
was requested to do. I used to carry up breakfast when he rang, if my
husband was out; he did not ring for my husband to attend him in the
morning to dress. I supposed my master had breakfasted out when he came
in; I was rather surprised that he had not rung. On the Sunday, when he
went out, he had on his black coat and waistcoat, and grey overalls; I
did not remark that the coat was too long for him; I do not know how he
was dressed when he went out on the Monday; he came home in a black
coat; I cannot tell whether it was the black coat in which he went out
on Sunday. I never saw Lord Cochrane. I never observed the black coat at
all in the bundle; I saw part of a grey coat, and the green uniform coat
was in the bundle. There was nothing extraordinary in my master's going
out in green, it was his drill dress; he was in the habit of going out
in it, and returning in it; I never knew of his going out in a green
drill dress, and returning with a black coat bef
