That some one or two months after this, I was at Mrs Williamson’s again. Mr Petet came riding up and Richard Williamson brother in law to Lyle ask him to light was glad to see him as Mr Lyle had directed him to collect the money that Lyle had worked Mr Petet out off, nor did I ever hear Petet ask Lyle or Williamson to lend him any money at either of the times, I saw them together, and Petet left the house of Mrs Williamsons with me at both of these meetings.
