"I

pa.-lor
on
the
night
ol

and,
after
they
had
had
a
few
beers,
he
bought
four

intending
to
take

INVITATION
TO

ROOM
Later
he
accepted
an
invita
tion
from
Meehan
to
visit
Mee

room
in
the
Central
Hotel.
On
the
way
over,
they
met
two
or
three
men,
with
whom
Paddy
started
to
talk.
Eckels
offered
them
a
bottle
of
beer
which
they
drank
on
the
street.
They
then
met
two
Indian
girls
standing
on
the
corner
of
Sev
enth
Street
and
Paddy
stopped
to
talk
to
them.
Paddy
suggested
that
they
lake
them
up
to
his
room.
"I
told
him
It
was
his
room
and
I
didn't
care
who
he
took
up
to
It,"
Eckels
testified.
In
Meehan's
room,
Eckels
gave
him
his
remaining
beer,
then
went
downstairs
to
get
some
more.
He
telephoned

He

Paddy
and

when
Eckels,
who
was
sitting
on

became
aware
of

arm
striking
at
him,
"I
felt
