foul language, and were ejected.
Mrs. Durlee, while on the stand j
was questioned by C. J. Knapp, j

f *
drinks you had, but were you in- j
j
toxicated?” Mrs. Durfee answer ■
ed, ‘ no, I was not—not at that
I
time any way. It would take a
j
wrhole lot more than fqur drinks to
get me intoxicated, I can tell you.”
