had her hands on Mr. Frank and I found them in that position."
Q. "When you came into the office before Thanksgiving day, now,
when the lady was sitting in the chair?"
A. Yes, sir; he saw me when he came out of the office, he saw me."
Q. What was said when they saw you?"
A. "When Mr. Frank came out of the office Mr. Frank was holler-
ing 'Yes, that is right, that is right' and he said, 'That is all
right, it will be easy to fix it that way.'"
Q. "Well, did you ever see him on any other occasion?"
A. "Yes, sir; I have seen him on other times there."
Q. "What other occasions?"
A. I have seen Mr. Frank in the packing room there one time with
a young lady lying on the table."
Q. How far was the woman on the table?"

The motion was made while the witness, Conley, was on the
stand, and before any cross examination had been had upon either
of the circumstances referred to in said questions and answers,
but after cross examination upon other subjects had progressed

It involves testimony from a witness named Conley regarding observations of Mr. Frank in compromising situations with a woman. The text includes questions and answers from the witness, and there is a motion to exclude certain testimony on the grounds that it is immaterial, irrelevant, illegal, and prejudicial. The document discusses the potential impact of this testimony on the trial and suggests that the failure to exclude it could be grounds for a new trial. This suggests the document is related to a criminal case, possibly involving charges of misconduct or more serious crimes.
