what you done for me last Saturday. I want to put you wise, this
Saturday". I says: "All right, what time". He says: "Oh, about
half past". He got back from lunch about a quarter past two,
then Mr. Holloway left, and then Miss Daisy Hopkins came into his
office. Mr. Frank came out, popped his fingers and bowed to me-
bowed his head to me, and then went back in the office. Then, I
went down and stood by the door. I didn't look it; I shut it.
I don't know what happened next! I didn't hear him come out of his
office at all. Then I went down and watched. No, I didn't hear her
come out of his office. Mr. Frank stayed there about a half an
hour that day, then the girl went out. He gave me a half a dol-
lar, this time. The next time I watched for him was before Thanks-
giving Day, sometimes in the winter, about the last part middle
of August. When he told me he wanted me to watch for him that
time, it was on the fourth floor, right at the elevator. Snowball
was standing there then. Mr. Frank says: "I want to put you wise:
again for today." He came back about half past two, and he says:
"She will be here in a minute". The lady that came in was one that
worked on the fourth floor. I don't know her name. It wasn't that
Miss Daisy Hopkins. She had hair like Mr. Hooper's, grey haired.
She had a green suit of clothes. She went to Mr. Frank's office,
and then I watched. I didn't hear them leave Mr. Frank's office.
Then she came out, and then he came out and went out the factory,
and then he came back. I stayed there waiting for him. He said:
"I didn't take out that money, I says: "I seed you didn't".
He said: "That's all right, old boy, I don't want you to have any-
thing to say to Mr. Herbert or Mr. Darley about what's going on
around here". The next time I watched was Thanksgiving day. I
met Mr. Frank there about eight o'clock in the morning. He says:
"A lady will be here in a little while; me and her are going to
chat. I don't want you to do no work; I just want you to
watch". The lady came in about a half an hour. I didn't know
her; I have never seen her working at the factory. I had seen
her at the factory two or three nights before Thanksgiving day
in Mr. Frank's office, about eight o'clock. She was a nice look-
ing lady. I think she had on black clothes. She was very tall, he-
avy built lady. The front door was open when she came Thanksgiving
Day. She went up stairs and went in Mr. Frank's office. Mr. Frank
