but you got three sheets to get them from,one line on all three
sheets and the total,making six lines altogether. It is not easy
to say how long that would take. It is merely looking at those things
and putting them down,you have got to over it,and get the different
classes of goods that we pack and take it and put it under the head
of the specialty,that is the head of the class of goods manufac-
tured that week. You must have the slat record. I haven't got the
slat record here. It certainly is different from this. It comes
from the cedar mill. The item on the financial sheet (Defendant's
Exhibit 2),that he got from the slat record is the item under "Mater-
ial cost", "Slats 2719 1/2 gross at 23d". That is all he would have
to get on the financial sheet with reference to slate. That wouldn't
take anymore time than taking these daily reports and putting them
on here. He also had to get the lead deliveries from the lead plant
and the tip deliveries from the tip plant. Our numbers run on the
sheet like this 10 X,20 X,etc. Our two 10X pencils,for instance,
manufactered for the Cadillac Motor Company,if they want a pencil
with their name on it and ours not on it,we call it the 10X special,
of 5 10 X Cadillac special. We have to go down through each number
that has been sold and get the make of each style of pencil and they
have to go in the right square,covering the right size and the right
number of gross. If he didn't he wouldn't balance with his packing
reports and the whole sheet would be incorrect. These papers here
and the tip plant and the slat record the lead record and the
packing are all the papers I know were not worked on Friday night
and which I found at the factory when I got there Monday. Frank needs
those four reports to make up his financial. Doing that work and
entering those eleven orders is all that I know Frank had todo on
April 26th. I didn't see them done. I say I found them done the
next week. It was certainly done between Friday night and Monday
morning. I didn't see the financial sheet on Monday. The slat re-
cord comes from slat mills and tip record from the tip plant. I
commenced the work about eight-thirty. I think he could have finished a greater part of this
work by ten-thirty, if he had worked continuously.
