Every public seat was again occupied at H. M. Police Court Tuesday, when defendant was further remanded to enable the defence to call fresh evidence with a view to proving that the value of the articles alleged to have been stolen is less than as stated by the prosecution.
Carmen Kupock, further cross-examined by Mr. Newman, said she last saw her mother's gold purse on October 31. The witness was quite sure that there was no hole in it nor were there any links missing.
Anita Kupock said she was 15 years of age and was familiar with all her mother's jewellery. She was quite sure she recognized the gold bag, purse and other property, but she had never seen the box before. The ring, bangle and pendant had been worn by Miss Smith. The box containing the jewellery, when they removed from the Trevor-Smiths, was placed in her uncle's dining room, and afterwards taken up to the girls' bedroom. Two months later when the box was opened, the property was found to be: missing. She went back to the Trevor-Smiths on the night of the 3ist, and stayed with them until the next day.
