Mrs. Carlin. Yes. He was in the part of the front part of the house. And he said, “Well, I have to go downtown anyway, so I will send it to you by Western Union.” And he asked me what name to send it in, and I told him, “Karen Bennett.”
Mr. Hubert. Was it arranged to be sent to your home or what?
Mrs. Carlin. No; to Western Union downtown.
Mr. Hubert. Did he tell you about what time to expect it?
Mrs. Carlin. No. I asked him what time, about how long, and he didn’t say.
Mr. Hubert. You mean he didn’t say anything, or he said he didn’t know?
Mrs. Carlin. He said, “Well,” he did say it would take a little while to get dressed and something about the dog, I don’t remember what it was. And he said, “I’ll go on down and send it to you.” And I said, “I sure would appreciate it.” And that is about all there was.
Mr. Hubert. Now was your rent in fact due?
Mrs. Carlin. Yes.
Mr. Hubert. Had your landlord been pressing you for the rent?
