Mrs. Cheek. Fifty-fifty.
Mr. Griffin. Each would have a half interest in the club?
Mrs. Cheek. Yes.
Mr. Griffin. Did he indicate how much of a return you would make for your $6,000?
Mrs. Cheek. No; he didn’t. He couldn’t even tell me the location of the place, because I asked him that, kept questioning him about where is the location, and he didn’t want to tell me that. And I asked him why, and he said, “Well, he just couldn’t tell me right then.” And I said, “Is it because you think I might go around and sell this place or try to buy it myself?” And he said, “Yes, that is the reason.”
He said, “How would you do about anything like that?” And I said, “Well, you tie it up. Put some money up on it.”
Mr. Griffin. Did it sound like Jack was interested in buying a piece of real estate, or was he going to get a lease and operate in a leased building, or what?
Mrs. Cheek. He didn’t go into that. He just kept talking about how he could operate a club, how much money could be made, you know, and he introduced me to this other fellow and talked about what a good interior decorator he was and how he would decorate the club.
Mr. Griffin. What did the interior decorator say?
Mrs. Cheek. Then the man was telling me what a good operator he was.
