1852. Do you keep a pass-book?-No; I never had a pass-book with him. 1853. Are you paid in the same way both for your own shawls that you sell, and for those that you knit for him?-No; generally when I knit a shawl for Mr. Sinclair, he allows me so much for the knitting of it; but when I sell a shawl, I price it myself. 1854. Is that price paid in the same way that the wages are paid to you for knitting?-No. 1855. Is it paid to you in money in both cases; or in goods?-It is paid in goods in both cases. 1856. Is there not a certain part of it, in both cases, that you can get money for?-Yes. When I knitted for Mr. Sinclair before I was married, he generally gave me money whenever I asked for it; but since I had a house of my own, I generally manage my affairs so that I do not have to ask him for money. I usually take clothes for my children and myself from him without getting money at all; but if I did ask him for money, I have no doubt he would give it to me. 1857. Have you always got money when you asked for it?-Yes; whenever I asked I got it. 1858. Do you generally take the whole value of your shawls in goods?-Yes, I always do. 1859. And no money passes between you at all?-No, not since I was married; but previously, when I asked him for money, I always got it. 1860. Did you generally ask for a considerable part of the price of your shawls in money?-Yes. 1861. How much might you get out of a 20s. shawl, for instance?- Perhaps I might have asked him for 2s. or 2s, 6d., and so on, money. 1862. Would that be about the usual thing?-Yes; that was generally about the usual thing. 1863. Did you ever get the whole price of a shawl or of any hosiery goods in money?-No; I never asked it. 1864. Do you live at home with your people, or did you live by yourself before you were married?-I lived at home with my father. 1865. So that you did not require any money with which to purchase food for yourself?-No. 1866. You merely knitted to supply yourself with dress, or whatever you wanted for yourself?-Yes. 1867. Did you require for your dress all the payments you received for your knitting?-No, I cannot say that I required it all for myself. I might have supplied some of my brothers or sisters with any little thing they wanted. 1868. Did they repay you for that, or did you make a present of it to them?-I generally made a present of it to them, as I was at home. 1869. Would you have preferred to have been paid wholly in money?-I should prefer to be paid part of both, if I could manage it. 1870. Would you prefer to get half the price in money?-Yes, I would like that very well. 1871. Could you not get one half of it in money if you asked for it?-I believe if I had asked for it I could have got it, but I did not ask it. 1872. Then, if you preferred it, why did you not ask for it?-I told you I managed my affairs in such a way that I did not need it.
