You don't have to do that unless you wish, but I would appreciate knowing what you prefer to do, because if you wish to read your deposition and to sign it, then we will have to have the reporter write it out promptly and have the U.S. attorney call you in and then you may come down and read your deposition and sign it. Mrs. PETERMAN. Well, as far as I can; I have told the truth about everything, you know, as much as I remember. Like I said, about the ages of the children and all, I am not positive. This was so long ago. Mr. JENNER. Well, I think you were pretty close. Mrs. PETERMAN. After 23 years you can't remember like just yesterday, or the day before. Mr. JENNER. Well, all right then, as far as you are concerned, you would just as soon waive the signing of the deposition, is that right? You don't want to read it over and sign it? Mrs. PETERMAN. Yes, sir; I waive it. Mr. JENNER. Very well, and thank you again for coming down, Mrs. Peterman. TESTIMONY OF MRS.

Mrs. EVANS. Yes; she was a very good friend of mine. Mr. JENNER. When did you first become acquainted with her? Mrs. EVANS. In about 1930. Mr. JENNER. About 1930? Mrs. EVANS. Something like that. Mr. JENNER. She was then about 26 or 27 years old, is that right? Mrs. EVANS. Well, I guess that's about right. Mr. JENNER. She is either 56 or 57 right now. Mrs. EVANS. Well, yes; she was about that then, I guess. I had met her between 1925 and 1930, about that time. I played cards with her. Mr. JENNER. What kind of cards? Bridge? Mrs. EVANS. We played bridge, yes. Mr. JENNER. How did you become acquainted with her? Mrs. EVANS. Well, through a friend, a mutual friend--hers and mine, and we used to play bridge together. Mr. JENNER. Was she married then? Mrs. EVANS. She was separated from her first husband.
