[page 384] By Mr. Pettangall: Q. Did you ever go away without leave? A. I dont know that I have. Q. I want a direct answer. Did you ever go away without leave from the hospital? A. No, I dont think I did. Q. Dont you think any attendant ever went away without leave? A. I dont know any thing about other folks. I always made it a practice to ask Hodgkins. Q. If you went away without leave whose duty was it to report that fact to the superintendent? A. I dont know exactly whose duty; it would be anybodys, I suppose, that knew it. Q. Was it or not the supervisors under whose immediate charge you were? A. If an attendant went away without leave, and he knew it, I suppose it was his duty to report it to Dr. Harlow. Q. And if it was reported I suppose you would have been fearful of punishment would you not? A. I dont know I am sure. Q. Did you have a copy of the rules while you were there? A. Yes, sir.
