Depend upon the character to the blanket Q. You had a grade of blankets you charged 40cents for when they were destroyed by the patients didn't you? A. I don't think we ever did. I never bought a blanket that we could sell at that price. Q. I don't mean blankets I mean sheets A. Oh yes Q. There was a grade for which you charged 60 cents? A. I think there may have been. Q. How long was that charge of 60 cents made for their destruction by these patients? A. I think it might have been a couple of years or such a matter. Q. Was it not from 1874? A. No, sir I don't think it was.
