 Explanation
 This testimony that I propose to offer now concerns the accused Leary and the accused Hayes and will later connect others of the acc cused. This that I propose to show now of January io30, the witness, MT. Purcell, discovered being in ir- regularity with respect to dupli- cate payment of a sum of money to Q contractor of $3,500. When he dis- covered this and was beginning to become suspicious of 1t, he spoke to Leary about 1t and Leary neglected to turn 1t back into the treasury. The payment wasn't made In Feb- ruary or in March. Then I propose to show that the witness took the matter Up with the mayor and the latter told the witness 1t was a mis- take and that he shouldn't question 1t. And later Leary turned the money back into the city treasury. In the meantime, I propose to show that he didn't set up @ special ace count, and when the witness, charg- ed with the accounting work, found 1t out, he questioned Leary about 1t and Leary said to him, well, we have certain people we take care of. They put us here and we have to take care of them" And Lary stat- ed to the witness that he wasn't c politician and he wouldn't under stand. And from then on, propose to show that the witness took care of the emorandum-the bank reconciliation sheets, work sheets and from then on he discovered irregularities, mountaing from time to time.
