Later in the eveningl he snatched up one of the weapons and invited TTnwin to take the other. Hall then suggested that after the electric light had been switched off they should light cigarettes, and that each should firo at the one the other was smoking in the darkness, TTnwin, however, refused to do anything of the kind. Hall afterwards fell asleep on the hearth-rug. . Further evidence was given that Baxter had inquired" of a friend whether shje, could be punishod fvtery; much if she shot Hall.
