VAlfred James Wargrave.

“You are a rose grower and live at Emsworth, Berks?”

“Yes.”

“Did you on October 20th go to Maidensford and examine a rose tree growing at the Lodge¹ atHunterbury Hall?”

“I did.”

“Will you describe this tree?”

“It was a climbing rose—Zephyrine Drouhin. It bears a sweetly scented² pink flower. It has nothorns.”

“It would be impossible to prick³ oneself on a rose tree of this description?”

“It would be quite impossible. It is a thornless tree.”
