Counsel for the defense submitted that the crime had yet to be proved. His learned friend was assuming too much. "Good gracious, Molly, don't knock the town down like that! Let 'em have more than a week to get used to this white rag of a dress you've been waving in their faces for the last few days. Go slow!" "I saw nothing," said David, wearily.
