I don't ask for any conversation; I ask for what you know by what you
saw.
A. Well, I wasn't near enough to read the tickets.
Q. Did you hear either of the inspectors say anything about it?
A. I did.
Q. Which one?
A. I heard the inspector that would be at the window where the ballots
would be received.
Q. Name him.
A. I heard Mr. Jones say that they voted the four tickets.
Q. Was that all he said?
A. Well, he would declare it in this way; sometimes he would say, "They
vote all the tickets with the exception of the Amendment;" that is the
way he generally declared it.
Q. I want to get at what he said when these votes were taken?
A. He didn't at all times declare the ticket voted.
Q. Are you willing to testify that you recollect distinctly, anything
that was said by either of the inspectors when these ladies voted?
A. Most decidedly; I heard Jones say that they voted the Congressional
ticket; I heard him say that they voted all the tickets.
Q. At the time they voted?
A. The question would be asked what tickets they voted, and he would
say, "All the tickets with the exception of the Amendment."
Q. Did he mention the Congressional ticket?
A. I think he did.
Q. Do you recollect that he did?
A.
