right here objecting, too.
 A. I don't remember signing any oath administered.
 o. I asked you if you didn't. as a fact, sign as agent for Santalucia without taking the oath authorizing you to do SO?
 (Objection Sustained.)
 Summoned by Hickey
 @. You were summoned here as a witness, weren't you?
 A. Yes.
 o. MT. Hickey summoned you?
 A. Yes, sir.
 @. And did you tell MT. Hickey that
 Cassidy-I think the states attor- ney is magnifying the situation, if the court pleases. If we are going to go into what this man told MT. Hickey and what he didn't tell MT. Hickey, I move that we go into it in the absence of the jury.
 (Over-ruleD
 o. (By Alcorn) Didn't you tell MT. Hickey when you were sum- moned that these lists were signed on the instruction of Santalucia? A. I told MT. Hickey that I signed the lists.
 o. Didn't you tell MT. Hickey that you signed the list under in- structions of Santalucia?
 A. Not to my knowledge. ..
 @. Did you sign them on the in- struction of Santalucia?
 A. Well, signed those as a mat ter of form. I might have signed them before I even told him about 1t.
 Q. Did you tell him about it af- ter you signed them?
 A. I believe did. It is so long ago that I can't remember.
 o. You said that in respect to previous lists that you told him. Now, did you also tell him of the list of 1e36?
 A. I imagine I did tell him, yes.
 o. And when you told him he didn't make any objection to it. Did he?
 A. No.
 O. And he didn't send you back to make any changes in it. Did he?
 A. No.
 Attorney Cassidy
 o. When you talked with Frank Santalucia you simply said to him: I signed the list today for you?
 A. YeS-WordS to thath effect.
 o. You didn't tell the contents of the list that you signed?
 A. No.
 o. As a matter of fact this list that you signed was all made out by the assessor and you didn't examine it at all, on the back of what you signed?
 A. No.
 o. Isn't it fact that you did it because the assessor asked you to do it in order to save the 10 per cent penalty?
 A. That is the idea.
 Saved 10 Per Cent Penalty
 o. That is the purpose and the idea, as you said. You went there to sign your own and while you were there the assessor said, why don't you sign the list for Frank Santalucia and save the 10 per- cent penalty?
 A. That is right.
 @. And what did it state?
 A. It stated theree certain prop erty that I knew he possessed.
 o. And you didn't examine at all what was on it?
 A. No.
 o. And you didn't tell Frank when you talked with him what was on the list?
 A. Nc.
 Cassidy: AS I understand it, these lists are admitted simply because they are admissions under Santa lucia. Under this evidence, it seems to me, that by this testimony that is in now, it can't be said this was an admission by Santalucia.
 Alcorn:--
 e. You notice your signature on the next sheet?
 A. Yes.
 o. Signed that?
 A. Yes.
 @. Sworn to it?
 A. That's right.
 o. It relates to real estate, doesn't 1t?
 A. Yes.
 0. Do you know what his real estate consists of?
 A. Yes.
 o. And you know what his per- sonal property consists of?
 A. Well, certain things I knew he had that I signed for.
 e. And you signed for what you knew he had?
 Cassidy: He didn't say that. if the court pleases. Judge Inglis to the jury: After admitting the book to evidence.
 This is to be used by you only in connection with the question of guilt or innocence of Frank Santa lucia alone, and has no bearing on any of. the other defendants, and is to be considered only ill the event that you find that MT. Har- tigan had authority to sign as the agent for Santalucia.
 Atty. Cassidy:
 o. These two exhibits that you signed, as I understand, MT. Har- tigan, you signed at the request of the commission. that is the asses sor. Is that right?
 A. That's right.
 o. And when you went there to assess your own property?
 A. That's right.
 o. And the list was all made out by them?
 A. That's right.
 o. And that you made no par ticular investigation as to what was on the list?
 A. Yes.
 e. As I understand, you were employed at the Standard Sales WAKE UP YOUR
