[_Confusion. The judge wakes up and splutters, and tries to say
something; the_ USHER _goes through the audience, but finds no one_;
HUNGARY _spreads out his hands to the Jury, appealingly_.

_Mr. H_. Yes, so it was in the street that you saw the loaves fall down?

_Pot_. Yes, sir; it was in the street that I saw it tumble down.

_A Voice_. You mean _them_, you fool! You haven't got the story right

[_Confusion again. The_ JUDGE _sits up and stares like a man awaked from
a nightmare, then calls out_ Officer! Officer! _very loud. The_ USHER
_goes his errand again, and comes back bootless_.

_Mr. H_. (_very blandly_). It was in the street that you saw the three

_Pot_. Yes, it was in the street that I saw the loaf fall down.

[CONSTABLE STRONGITHOATH _sworn_,
