Evidence of seeing a car parked outside the Hotel Cecil at 8.10 p.m. on March 21 was given by Constable T. J. Steele, who said he saw accused enter the hotel and later come out and open the dickey seat at the back of the car. Accused was questioned because he had parked on a bus stop, and said he had booked in at the hotel. His speech was slurred and his breath smelt of liquor. Accused was asked who had driven the car, and replied that his wife was the driver. A woman in the car denied that she was the driver and said she was not the wife of accused.
