Mrs. Bledsoe. Well, I thought. "Well, he is gone," and forgot it.

Mr. Ball. But, before you go into that, I notice you have been reading from some notes before you.

Mrs. Bledsoe. Well, because I forget what I have to say.

Mr. Ball. When did you make those notes?

Mrs. Bledsoe. What day did I make them?

Miss Douthit. When Mr. Sorrels and I were talking about her going to Washington, he made the suggestion that she put all the things down on paper because she might forget something, and I said, "Mary, you put everything on a piece of paper so that you can remember it and you won't forget anything, you know, what happened," and that's when she started making notes.

Mr. Ball. You have made the notes in the last week?

Mrs. Bledsoe. Yes.

Miss Douthit. At my suggestion and Mr. Sorrels.

Mr. Ball. You didn't make any notes during the week he was there?
