The judge said he had read a letter from a distinguished literary man expressing sympathy with Wilde, and hoped that the charges against him would be disproved.
C. F. Gill, who was Commoner Carson's assistant counsel in the defence of the marquis of Queensberry, proceeded to read the evidence taken in the Queensberry trial relating to Wilde’s association with Alphonse Conway, a newsboy at Worthing. Sir Edward Clark on behalf of Wilde, objected to the reading on the ground that the matter was outside of the present indictment. The court declined to interfere, and also refused to exclude evidence regarding Wilde's relations with his fellow prisoner Taylor.
