After he came out, witness saw him from time to time. On one occasion he came up with him in Castle street, and walked with him. That was 14 or 15 years since. Mt Gallie knew him then, and asked how his father was. He could not understand Mr Gallie very well, and believed he had a stroke that affected his speech. Apart from the difficulty of speech Mr Gallie's conversation was sensible. Mr Gallie spoke about people and old times.
