Mr. Liebeler. He told you that he paid $18 for it?

Mr. Price. Yes; he said that it was—he remarked that it was a 4-power telescope and he said it was mounted on Redfield mounts. You see, they make mounts for several different guns, but I don't know one mount from another myself. I just took his word for it that it was a Redfield mount, but I looked through the scope and it was very clear. It was very bright and we compared it with two scopes that Mr. Slack had on his gun and a fellow that was shooting on the right side in booth 7—I don't know who that was, but we compared it with three different American-made scopes and his telescope was brighter and clearer by far. You could read the lines and numerals on the target very plainly with it.

Mr. Liebeler. Did he tell you that he paid $18 for the scope or did he say that he paid $18 for the whole works?

Mr. Price. No; he said he paid $18 for the scope.

Mr. Liebeler. Did he tell you where he had it mounted?

Mr. Price. He said that he got the thing from a gunsmith in Cedar Hill for a debt, the gun, and that he bought the scope and that the gunsmith mounted it for him.

Mr. Liebeler. The same gunsmith?

Mr. Price. Yes.

Mr. Liebeler. And that was in Cedar Hill?

Mr. Price. It might be; but I don't know of any gunsmith in Cedar Hill.
