“Did you ever have any ushers—anybody who got seats for strangers.”
“No, sir; but I saw some of the old members get up and give their seats when strangers came in.”
“You stated that Mr. Spies introduced resolutions in sympathy with a girl?”
“Somebody else introduced them but Spies opposed it. He said there was no use making resolutions.”
“That is, the girl had had her day in court and it was no use passing resolutions?”
“He said it would be a good opportunity for some one to take a pistol and go and shoot Wight.”
“You are sure Spies said that?”—“Yes, sir.”
“You wrote out your report immediately with all the facts fresh in your mind.”—“Yes, I wrote it that night.”
“Didn’t you write in your report [reading from it] that Keegan said that after Spies got through with his remarks?”—“Yes, but Mr. Spies said it also.”
