ALONZO MANN, Sworn for the defendant.

I am office boy at the National Pencil Company. I began working there April 1st, 1913. I sit sometimes in the outer office and stand around in the outer hall. I left the factory about half past eleven on April 26th. When I left there Miss Hall, the stenographer from Montag, was in the office with Mr.Frank. Mr.Frank told me to phone to Mr. Schiff and tell him to come down. I telephoned him, but the girl answered the phone and said he hadn't got up yet.I telephoned once. I worked there two Saturday afternoon of the weeks previous to the murder and stayed there until half past three or four. Frank was always working during that time. I never saw him bring any women into the factory and drink with them. I have never seen Dalton there. On April 26th, I saw Holloway,Irby,MoCrary and Darley at the factory. I didn't see Quinn.I don't remember seeing Corinthia Hall,Mrs. Freeman,Mrs.White,Graham,Tillander,or Wade Campbell. I left there 11.30.

CROSS EXAMINATION. When Mr.Frank came that morning, he went right on into the office. He went out once. Don't know how long he stayed out.
