 NOTES
Corroborative Evidence

A man walked into DavidsOn's Cash Store about ten days ago and asked to see their steel ranges. He was shown their line of 34 patterns of Moores Steel Ranges ranging from $2O to $75. Do you warrant these ranges he asked. We do, replied the clerk. We warrant them to be as good bakers, if not the best, that there are in the world. Well how am to know that he asked. There are two ways, replied the salesman. Consult our customers or try one. We can give you the names of many GUS toners using them or We will set one up in your house guaranteeing it to be as quick a baker as your wife ever used. 4 few days later he came in and said Well, my near neighbor has q Moores range and she says it's all right and all that you say of it.'
 Corroborative evidence sold the range as it has sold many Moores ranges at Davidson's Cash Store.
