@. How did you get information
concerning the financial needs Of the
store?
A. From Miss Bentlage.
@. What did you have TO do with
the books?
A. Nothing whatever.
@. What did you have to do with
any of the books?
A. Merely took in the money and
gave receipts when Miss Bentlage was
away to dinner or did not happen to
be at the desk.
Objections Entered.
At this point the attorneys for the
defense raised a general objection to
the line of testimony being given by
the plaintiff, and the judge made the
ruling that he would not be allowed
to testify regarding these facts.
Jesse Parshall was recalled to the
stand and identified the handwriting
on seven thousand checks to be that
of Miss Bentlage, with the exception
of the signatures, all of which were
written by H. c. Hasemeier.
The amount of overdrafts from Au-
gust l to August IL, 1914, we're read
by George Gates of the Union National
bank. The total amount of overdrafts
on August /, was $1,391.17, according
OF his testimony. On August IL a loan
was negotiated from the bank to cover
the overdraft.
Edward Hasemeier testified that he
did not see his brother, H. c. Hase-
meier take the package of unpaid
bills out of Miss Bentlage's desk on
the day she died, but that he saw the
bundle of bills on top of the desk after
his attention had been called by H. c.
Hasemeier.
Fred Bartel, treasurer of the Adam
H. Bartel company, wholesalers of this
city, testified relative to bills due that
company that had not been paid, al
though it was the custom to pay the
bills promptly through Miss Bentlage,
as cashier.

aisle and part of the aisles leading to
the front of the court room, but also
crowded in the front door leaving only
space enough for the attorneys and
the witnesses, the most lively session
since the beginning Of the trial result
ed Wednesday afternoon. Plaintiffs
in the MISUNDERSTANDING case, prac-
tically completed their testimony with
the exception of the evidence to be
given by the expert accountants.
H. c. Hasemeier was on the stand
until $3.50 o'clock but was not allowed

firm who has been called to testify but
he too was prevented from relating
any transaction with Miss Bentlage.
1000 Checks Presented.
Seven thousand cancelled checks
were presented for evidence by Mr..
Hasemeier. The checks were piled on
table in front of the jury and all
with the exception of ten had been
signed by H. c.. Hasemeier, president
of the plaintiff corporation. The other
ten had been signed by either John or
Edward Hasemeier, other members of
the firm.
A letter, alleged to have been writ
ten by Miss Bentlage to firm in Bos-
ton, asking for an extension of time on
bill due, was identified by Jesse
Parshall, the present bookkeeper. He
said that the letter had been sent by
Miss Bentlage, signed by her and had
been received by the company at Bos-
ton as having the weight of a state

plaintiffs attorneys to have Mr.. Hase-
meier testify that he had not dictated
the letter or knew nothing about it
until returned to him by the firm at
Boston, was ruled out by the Judge.

BODY OF MAN FOUND IN RIVER,
John breckenridge Lost Life by
Drowning in ChnttoOga.

News was received in Walhalla
Monday of the finding of the body Of
John Breckenridge on the Georgia
side of the Chattooga river, near
the farms OF Alfred Whitmire and
w. G. Russell. The finding Of the
body was made by Otto Russell as
he was going over the river bottoms.
1t is stated that Breckenridge was
on his way to Walhalla at the time
he was drowned, and this leaves
some speculation as to who the man
is. Some years ago there was man
by the name OF John Breck enridge
who lived some miles northwest of
Walhalla, and we have been unable
to find any one who has recalled see-
ing him in this vicinity for some
time. 1t is possible, therefore, that
the drowned man Is the John Breck-
enridge Of this section, the state
ment that he had started to Walhalia
lending color to this probability.
The body found is that OF a man
of about 40 years of age. He had, it
is said, been working on the farm Of
Mr.. Whitmire for several years. He
had no immediate family, and about
the 18th Of July was supposed to
have started for Walhalla There
was, therefore, no thought Of an ac-
cldent when he was not seen in that
vicinity for some time, and nothing
unusual was suspected until the
CHASTITY find by Mr.. Russell last Sat
urday afternoon. The body was de-
tected in p drift in the river toward
the Georgia side OF the stream, and
its condition indicated that it had
been there for some ten or twelve
days, decomposition having set in.
1t is supposed that Mr.. Breckenridge
had gone in bathing, and. owing to
the high water that prevailed about
that time, he was evidently over
come by the stream at point IN the
river at which he and others were ac-
custofned to resort for bathing and
swimming. His clothing and pocket
book were found on the river bank
unmolested, just as n bather would
place his clothing before entering
the water.
The place where the body was
found being nearer the Georgia bank
OF the river than the South Carolina
side, the coroner Of Rabun county
was notified OF the finding Of the
body, and an inquest was held by
that official. Communication with
that section Of OcOnee could not be
had yesterday evening or this morn
ing, and we have been unable to get
any information us to the finding of
the inquest
