4100. Why have you not a pass-book?-Because he thought there was no use giving us a pass-book when he marked all the things down in his own book, and he would not give it.
4101. When you go to him with your veils, how are you paid?- Very poorly. We just get 8d. for a veil.
4102. How is that paid to you-in money or goods?-In goods. I have asked for a payment in money, but he would not give any. He gives us tea for 9d. and 10d. a quarter.
4103. Would you give your veils for less if you could get money for them?-Yes, for a little less.
4104. For how much less?-Not much.
4105. Are you not as well off getting the goods as you got money?-No; I would be better off with the money.
4106. Why? Do you not want to buy the articles [Page 103] which Mr. Linklater sells to you?-No. Sometimes we need a little meal.
4107. Have you no other means of getting meal than from your knitting?-No.
4108. Do you not work out of doors?-We work in the field and in the turnips.
4109. But it is yourself I am speaking of. Do you live with your father and mother?-Yes.
