Mr. Jenner. Excuse me—may I ask you a few questions about that—you keep a record of all receipts?
Mrs. Tobias. Oh, yes; we have one—they get one and the owner gets one.
Mr. Jenner. When a rent payment is made, you make an entry in the book you have before you of having received a certain amount of money. It's in duplicate or triplicate—the tenant gets a copy of the receipt, you retain one in your book and you send one to the owners of the building?
Mrs. Tobias. Well, she gets the name of it and I think this is the other one—my husband has it marked here, so that every time they would come out they would have a lot of trouble looking and let me see, now—yes, he paid—he lacked $8—the balance.
Mr. Jenner. Explain to me what you mean by his lacking a balance?
Mrs. Tobias. Well, he paid the $68 when he came at the regular date, and then the 8th—that would be the 2d and the 8th he came back and paid the other $8 and here is the beginning—if you would like to check them.
Mr. Jenner. I take it, then, is what you mean is that for the month of February, he paid first $60?
Mrs. Tobias. Yes—right.
Mr. Jenner. So, he was $8 in arrears at that time?
Mrs. Tobias. Yes.
