alf of the United States, having been duly affirmed, testified as follows: _Examined by_ MR. CROWLEY: Q. Did you reside in the City of Rochester in the month of November, 1872? A. Yes, sir. Q. Did you reside in the 8th ward? A. I did. Q. In the first election district of that ward? A. I did. Q. Was your name registered before the election which took place on the 5th of November, 1872? A. It was. Q. By whom? A. I think Mr. Jones; in fact, all three of the inspectors were there. Q. Did you, upon the 5th day of November, vote? A. I did. Q. Who received your vote? A. Mr. Jones. Q. Were the other inspectors there at the time? A. Yes, sir. Q. Did you vote for a candidate for Congress? A. I did. _Cross-Examination by_ MR. VAN VOORHIS: Q. Was Mr. Lewis there when you registered? A. Mr. Lewis was not there. Q. Do you recollect who took your vote? A. I think Mr. Jones took it; I know he did. Q. Was your ballot folded up? A. It was. Q. Could any person read it, or see what you voted, or who you voted for? A. No one but my husband. Q. He saw it before you voted? A. Yes, sir. Q. Was your husband present when you voted? Objected to as immaterial. A. He was. Q. No one had seen your ballot except your husband before you handed it in? A. No, sir. Q. And when you handed it in it was folded, so that no one could see it? A. It was. THE COURT: What is the object of this? MR. VAN VOORHIS: The District Attorney inquired if she voted a certain ticket, and assumes to charge these inspectors with knowing what she voted. It is to show that the ticket being folded, the inspector could not see what was in it. Q. In voting, did you believe that you had a right to vote, and vote in good faith? Objected to as immaterial. Objection sustained. _Re-Direct Examination by_ MR. CROWLEY: Q. You have heard me name the different persons, have you not, when I asked Mr. Morrison questions? A. Yes, sir. Q. Were these people, or any of them, present, and were they registered at the same time you were? A. Some of them were present. Q. Who? A. Mrs. Lottie B. Anthony; there was one lady that registered who didn't vote; I think Mrs. Anthony was the only lady that was present that voted; I can't recollect any more names. Q. Who of these ladies were present when you voted and voted with you, if any? A. Miss Susan B. Anthony, Mrs. Pulver, Mrs.
