Donahue said Crandall came to his Fouse about 8 o'clock over a week be- fore the break. He asked if Donahue knew how he could get some money. Crandall said there was going to be an auction at Mr, Rathbun's and want- ed to know if Donahue could come to it. Donahue sald he didn't go to the auction, The day after the auction the Tues- day hefore the break, Crandall came to him again and said he wanted to | et some money. Donahue gave him a quarter. Crandall said his family need it and Crandall said he knew how he could get some. Crandall said there was money at the Rathbun house and rropesed going there after it Donalive refused at first on the Wed- nesday when Crandall proposed it. Donahue didn't see any more of Cran- dall until Saturday when Crandall came to him and repeated the plea for the roney.
