iced that he was getting worse
One time in the summer of 1902, he
made 4 bower for shade in the corn
field and used to sit in it when the
sun was shining hot. Sometimes in
hot weather he would have his wife
wet cloths and keep on his head.
He was holding his head and COM
planning great deal. Noticed at
times that Mrs. Krause was afraid
and excited. She tried to keep out
; of Krause's way. When Krause
would shoot gun about the prem
ises, Mrs. Krause would always turn
her back and put her hands over
her ears.
Cross.examination: Except at
such times as Krause had these ex-
cited times he was always pleasan t
and agreeable. Krause couldn It
talk much English, and he made me
understand by motions. During
the past year I have been at the
Krause house about once a week.
Mrs. Kruse would come to my house
with, her work-and visit quite
often. Didn t see Krause pull his
wife's hair but took some Of the
hair from her head that had been
pulled loose They always sat by
the stove at home as I have said.
