Mr. Senator. Because I think Jack is of that temperament where size don’t mean anything to him.
Mr. Hubert. You just base that upon your general knowledge of the man?
Mr. Senator. Yes; I don’t think he is of the nature who would back off.
Mr. Hubert. Did you ever see him act in what might be considered brutal in the sense that he went further than he had to go with reference to anything?
Mr. Senator. No; I have never witnessed any.
Mr. Hubert. Do you know or have you ever heard of an occasion where he had a fight with a man who bit part of his finger off?
Mr. Senator. I haven’t seen it. I mean I see the finger. I have heard that, yes. How it happened I don’t know. There was some sort of a fight and the guy bit it. Now what happened I don’t know but I’ve heard that.
Mr. Hubert. Did Jack ever talk to you about it?
Mr. Senator. No; as a matter of fact I have noticed his finger, you know, I have seen his finger but I never asked him why, because it happens to be we both got the same type finger. Mine is a paper cut. His cut much more off than mine.
Mr. Hubert. He never told you how he lost that part of the finger?
