Mrs. Powell. No.

Mr. Griffin. Have you ever had any of the employees tell you that he hit them?

Mrs. Powell. No; I guess I call him everything in the book, and he never made an attempt to hit me. I argued with him more than anybody up there, and he never made an attempt to hit me. He never even threatened me.

Mr. Griffin. Of course, you had a little protection. You were friendly with his backer?

Mrs. Powell. That wouldn’t stop Jack. He doesn’t care. I mean, if he felt like doing it, he would do it.

Mr. Griffin. Did you ever see him hit any customers?

Mrs. Powell. Once I did.

Mr. Griffin. Can you describe that episode?

Mrs. Powell. Yes; Ralph was up there, and Ralph and I were sitting by the door, and this guy came in.

Mr. Griffin. You are talking about Ralph Paul?
