pectors present when he took it? A. I believe they were. Q. Did Jones take all of the votes of those persons whose names you have on your list? A. I don't think he did. Q. Who took any others that you saw? A. I saw Mr. Hall take some of the ballots. Q. How many? A. I couldn't tell how many. Q. Did you see him take more than one? A. I don't know as I did. Q.
