MISS BESSIE FLEMING, Sworn In For The State, 143rd To Testify

MISS BESSIE FLEMING, sworn for the Defendant.

I worked as stenographer at Mr. Frank's office from April, 1911, to

December, 1911. Mr. Frank's character was unusually good.

CROSS EXAMINATION

I am just talking about my personal relations with him. I have never

seen him do anything wrong there in the factory. He never made any

advances to me or anyone else. I worked right in the same office with

him. The foreladies came to the office, the other girls did not very much.

I never did see any flirting. I never heard about any. Mr. Frank worked

on his financial sheet in the afternoons, he didn't have time Saturday

morning. I didn't stay there very often on Saturday afternoons, but I

knew that he didn't have time to do it Saturday morning. I saw him on

Saturdays during the mornings making out the financial sheet. The girls

work by the hour and piece work. She has a right to go in there when

she wants to dress to go out.
