At the time they were building, the crash came. They took advantage of the prices and said, "We have not enough money to keep on; the shareholders will have to come together and pay more money on each share." I paid $10 extra on each share. At that time my mother had acquired eight shares. She had bought another for herself. Then my cousin had bought two for herself, which she did not want to keep, so my mother told her she would buy them from her. Q. Did Morello know anything about your going to see Commissioner Wood; did you tell him? A. Yes. I-- Q. What did you tell him? A. I said that Commissioner Wood, when he found out that I would not give the information he wanted, said that I was just like the rest of them and then told me that I might go. Q. Did you tell Morello before you went down? A. No. Q. What did Morello say when you told him that you had been down there? A. He said that is the way you have to do everything. Q. What do you know about the barrel murder? A. Absolutely nothing at all. Q. What do you know about Inzarillo? A. He is considered of questionable character. Q. Do you know the Terranova Brothers? A. They are the stepbrothers of Morello. Q. Do you know anything about them? Did you treat them? A. Yes, quite a long while; they had a disease which required that they come to my house every day, both Morello and the Terranovas. Q. When was that? A. That went on for about two years. Q. What two years? A. The two years just preceding 1907 and 1908. Q. Was Morello born with that deformed hand? A. Yes. He was so much crippled that they called him "Little Finger." Q. Then you did not treat Morello in 1909? A. At the time that I stated I did see him at No. 107 East One Hundred and Thirty-eighth Street; also, I saw him in Rizzo's house, and he would complain of pains; he was always complaining. Q. He was not sick in bed? A. No. Q. You did not have any consultation with Dr. Brancato? A. No. I think that I may have had one consultation with him when he was at One Hundred and Thirty-eighth Street. Q. When? A. I think it was before the time I covered. I think it was in December, 1908, also. Q. That means January and February? A. No. Q. He was not treating Morello? A. He was the family physician in a way. Q. What do you think of him? A. Dr. Brancato? I want to state the fact as honestly as if he were my brother. I think he was a figurehead, too. Q. Did he ever say about what he was going to testify? A. He said we were up against a bad proposition. "Let us make our testimony as light as possible," he said. I asked him how we could avoid a thing of that kind. They would get us into trouble and we would have to stand for it. Q. Who came to you and told you that you would have to testify? A. Nobody; but this is the way it was done: They went to my mother and began to talk to her. Q. Who?
