Selig gave me $5, but it wasn’t for my work, and they didn’t tell me what it was for, she just said, ‘Here is $5, Minola.’ I understood it was a tip for me to keep quiet. They would tell me to mind how I talked when Miss Lucile gave me a hat.

Q. “Is that the reason you didn’t tell the solicitor yesterday all about this—that Miss Lucile and the others had told you not to say anything about what happened at home there?”
A. “Yes, sir.”
Q. “Is that true?”
A. “Yes, sir.”
Q. “And that’s the reason you would rather have been locked up last night than tell?”
A. “Yes, sir.”
Q. “Has Mr. Pickett or Mr. Cravens or Mr. Campbell or myself influenced you in any way or threatened you in any way to make this statement?”
A. “No, sir.”
Q. “You make it of your own free will and accord in their presence and in the presence of Mr. Gordon, your attorney?”
A. “Yes, sir.”
