Mr. Crafard. No; I didn’t call the bus depots or anything. I wasn’t that interested in it.
Mr. Hubert. Well, you were interested enough in her to talk with her for 3 hours. I wondered if you weren’t interested enough to find out if you couldn’t meet her by going to one of the bus stations.
Mr. Crafard. She talked—she was leaving town and didn’t figure on being back for quite a little while.
Mr. Hubert. When did she tell you that?
Mr. Crafard. Shortly after we started—I believe just shortly before we finished the conversation I started to find out where to meet her at.
Mr. Hubert. Which was it? What killed your interest? Is that what you are trying to tell us?
Mr. Crafard. I figured she was leaving town, there wasn’t no sense in going to too much trouble to try and meet her if she was leaving town and wasn’t figuring on being back.
First, she talked like she was going to be gone for the weekend, and then just shortly before we finished the conversation, she give me to understand that she would be gone on a prolonged, for a prolonged period of time.
Mr. Hubert. So this girl then, who was going for a long period of time, you suggest was willing to talk with you for 3 hours and the conversation, the general tenor of which was sort of love making on the phone, as it were?
Mr. Crafard. As you would put it; yes.
