By Mr. Grosvenor :
Q. Mr. Pelzer, these minutes for the meeting of November 10, 1910, state: "Mr. Kennedy reported on behalf of the Executive Committee that the five Canadian exchanges of Mr. P. L. Waters had been purchased on the same basis that the Canadian exchanges of Mr. Kleine were purchased, at the following figures : $ in preferred stock and $
in deferred money payments/' Now, will you fill in those figures? A. I can get those from the books. The figures were read at the time, I remember I didn't get them, but I was to get those later from Mr. Kennedy and it was overlooked, but I lie books of the company will show what the figures are.
Q. I believe I have also asked you to ascertain from the books of the company the date of all authorization to the Executive Committee to purchase all the exchanges, and you so understand? A. Yes.
