desk. When I was in there he was at work on a pile of letters and things
like that.

RE-DIRECT EXAMINATION.

When I was first employed at the factory Mr. Nix said to me, "I will
give $12.50 a week, when the busy season comes up, about the first of August,
I will raise it to $15. About the middle of June, I asked him to raise it on
the first of July, but he said, "We will wait until August 1st." At the time
I testified at the coroner's inquest. I had never seen any of the financial sheets.
I did not write a figure on that financial sheet. At the inquest I thought the
average sheet was the financial sheet. I told Mr. Frank that I couldn't stay
longer than 12 o'clock, and he asked me to stay all the afternoon and help
him, that he was busy. I also heard him ask Harry Gottheimer to come over
in the afternoon.

MISS CORINTHIA HALL, Sworn for the Defendant.

I work in the finishing up department of the pencil factory. I am a fore-
lady. I was at the factory on April 26, I got there about 25 minutes to twelve.
I had to come to town on the East Lake car and got to town about 11:30 and
it took me about five minutes to reach the factory. Mrs. Emma Clarke Free-
man was with me. She had spent the night with me. We went there after her
coat and to telephone, to call up Mrs. Freeman's husband. We went up to
the fourth floor to get the coat and then came down and went in Mr. Frank's
office. It was about 15 minutes to 12 when we left the factory. Mr. Frank
was writing when we came in his office. His stenographer was in the outer
office. Mrs. Freeman said she would like to use the telephone. She used the
telephone and then we went out. During the ten minutes we were there he
was talking to two men between the outer office and the clock. He was dis-
missing those two men when we came. Mr. White and the stenographer were
in the office then also. As we were going up the steps, Mr. Frank called to
Mrs. Freeman to tell Arthur White to come down that his wife wanted to
see him. On the fourth floor we saw May Barrett, Arthur White and Harry
Denham. When we left the factory, the following people were still there:
Arthur White, Mrs. White, May Barrett, her daughter, Harry-Denham, the
stenographer and Mr. Frank.

CROSS EXAMINATION.

We met Mr. Holloway between Broad and Forsyth Streets as he came
out of the factory and as we went in. We met Lemmie Quinn afterwards at
the Greek Cafe. Don't know what time it was when we came out, we went to
corner of Alabama and Forsyth to use a telephone. It took us about five
minutes to go there and come back to Greek Cafe. We got a cup of coffee and
sandwich and were getting the change when Quinn came in.
