The defense then called me . I had to admit that the dress and hat as described were almost certainly the ones I had seen on the bed in Jennie Brice 's room the day before she disappeared . I could not say definitely whether the woman in the photograph was Jennie Brice or not ; under a magnifying-glass thought it might be . Defense called Jonathan Alexander , a druggist who testified that on the night in question he had been roused at half past three by the prisoner , who had said his wife was ill , and had purchased a bottle of a proprietary remedy from him . His identification was absolute . The defense called Jennie Brice 's sister , and endeavored to prove that Jennie Brice had had no such scar . It was shown that she was on intimate terms with her family and would hardly have concealed an operation of any gravity from them .
