Mr. Hubert. Do you still think it was an act of kindness on his part to take you in?

Mr. Crafard. I think he was doing me a favor, and still in all he was getting some pretty cheap work, labor.

Mr. Griffin. Did you ask him for the job or did he ask you?

Mr. Crafard. He asked me. And then I know of another occasion where I was told about of this young fellow he took in didn’t do a thing around the club and he had him around there for 3 or 4 months.

Mr. Griffin. Did it seem to you that Jack felt it was important that he have somebody at the club all the time?

Mr. Crafard. After I was there for a while he seemed to feel that way. At first, when I first got to know him, he didn’t seem to feel that way.

Mr. Hubert. This boy that had been there more or less doing the job that you did, but was there prior to you; did you know this fellow?

Mr. Crafard. No; I didn’t know him. I had heard—Andy had told me about him.

Mr. Hubert. Isn’t it a fact that you heard from Andy or otherwise there had been some trouble between Ruby and that man?

Mr. Crafard. I believe there was something said about trouble.
