_A._ Yes, I have.

_Q._ Had not you seen them together before that time?

_A._ No, I had not.

_Q._ How often have you seen them together since?

_A._ I never saw them together but once.

_Q._ When was that?

_A._ I do not know, indeed.

_Q._ When were you first sent for to become a witness on this occasion?

_A._ I never was sent for.

_Q._ When did you go to any person upon the subject?

_A._ I never went to any place upon the subject, further than going
