Judith caught her hand with a cry of dismay. "Yes. I was taken advantage of for once in my life. A cunning woman, that Dido. She got permission to see me in prison, and to talk to me alone, under the pretense of telling me about her evidence. Knowing that I could compel her to do what I wished by means of the Voodoo stone, I saw her with pleasure, as it was my intention to put the words likely to get me off--to prove my innocence--into her mouth. However, while I was talking to her, she suddenly produced a phial of the devil-stick poison and threw it in my face. Of course, I instantly became unconscious, and it was then that she wrenched the talisman off my watch-chain." "You have no proof of that.".

me instead fails.There was

"By Mrs. Dallas!" "Partly, Miss Dallas, and partly to see you; also this gentleman." "Do you mean to say that Dido killed Mr. Alymer?" she asked, nervously. "Dying!" cried Patricia, aghast. "Why they said she was better this morning.".
