Miss Hagen said she had known MacVeagh, pioneer wholesale grocer and son of Franklin MacVeagh, a cabinet member under President Taft, for about 30 years. She deposed she met MacVeagh when she was 16 years old in Chicago. Two years' later, the deposition read, MacVeagh established her in business, where she remained a year, Later she went to New York and to Europe to study at MacVeagh's expense, Miss Hagen deposed.
