rected me 10 open and keep an account
of expenses which he termed 'Legisla-
tive Expenses I know, however, that
the smouns of those expenses was e clear
loss to the bank. The entries on page
5S4 of Journal A are not in the names OF
MIR. Hope and Mr.. Smith, as the entries
in the other books are. They are in the
names of 'Surdry Persons written in
each case over erasure. / do not recog-
nize the handwriting in which Sundry
Persons il wEitten. / am certain the
erasures we're not made at the time l
gave up th,, books to the receiver" .

Dec. 2, No. Sc, T. c. Dunn, $500:
~ do not remember what considera-
ton was paid by these parties for these
certificates of deposit. | find entries OF
all of these on pages $50, 59l and 69S,
respectively, of Journal B, of cores
ponding dates. In all these cases these
latter are in the names of the same par
ties. except in the case of No. S6, 7. @.
Dunn, for $500. In that case, instead
of T. O. Dunn's name appearing, the
name of j. Crews appears, written over
erasure. l cannot say what was erased,
but the nuraber and the date, as well as
the amount, show it was the same GER
tifcate Of deposit as was entered in In.
dividual Ledger A in the name of 7. g.
Dunn. I do not know who made the
erasure. Il was not made at the time /
gave up the books of the bank, including
journal B, to the receiver. l also lind
entries on corresponding pages OF Jour
nal A of corresponding dates for like
sums, except the $500, for which certifi-
cate of deposit No. Sc was issued to I. G..
Dunn, which does not appear on page
593; and rs there are no other sums of
the same amount in either book of the
same date, it appears that the latter en-
tries were for the same transaction. The
entries appear under the head of Iegis-
latiye Expenses The figures 1922 ap-
pear opposite each of these latter entries
in the first column, and indicate that
these entries were carried to that page of
the general ledger, but, as have already
said there is no such page in the general
ledger; the same, with others, having
been cut out, since the general ledger and
the other books of the bank were turned
over to Receiver Dunn. Mrs. N. Dora
Whittemore, as understand, is the wife
of Senator B. F. Whittemore. The de-.
posits in her name were made by him"

I do not remember what consideration
was paid by these parties for these certifi.
Gates of deposit. I find entries of 4I of
them on pages 500, 600, 602 and COG re-
spectively. [ also find entries Oh cores
ponding pages of Journal A for cores
bonding dates for like sums, and as there
are no other sums of the same amount in
either book of the same date, it appears
that the latter entries are for the same
transaction. The latter. entries appear
under the head of Legislative Expen-
ses," and in the name of "Sundry Per-
sons" written over erasures. They also
have the figures 1892" opposite, in the
first column, indicating they are carried
to that page of the geaeral ledger, which,
as 1 have already mentioned, has been
cut out.
