:48:07
Step down into the boat
:48:09
and show the jury what happened
when the boat overturned.

:48:17
Take the same position you had
at the time of the drowning.

:48:26
When the girl rose in the boat
to come towards you,

:48:30
did she stumble about there?
:48:34
- Speak up.
- Yes.

:48:38
And then?
:48:40
She fell sideways into the water.
:48:43
- Then what?
- The boat turned over on top of us.

:48:47
- What happened then?
- I couldn't see very clearly.

:48:52
There was a thud,
as if the edge of the boat hit her.

:48:56
Very likely!
:48:58
After this accidental blow, how far
apart were you when you came up?

:49:05
I don't know exactly.
:49:07
You couldn't have been
more than a yard apart!

:49:11
It was further.
:49:13
From there to the jury box
or halfway or what?

:49:17
From here to the jury box.
:49:19
Not really. When you and she
came up, you're nearly 20 feet apart!

:49:26
- Why couldn't you swim toward her?
- I don't know.

:49:30
Step over here.
:49:43
Was the boat as far as from here
to the bailiff?

:49:47
Yes.
:49:49
You're telling me
you couldn't swim to this weak girl

:49:53
and buoy her up
till you could reach this boat?

:49:57
You're lying! She was drowning,
and you just let her drown!
