TESTIMONY OF JOHN BLAKE WHITE. 21 



Tiave subsequently visited customers of his who have purchased at 

 least fifteen or twenty quarts of milk from him, who stated to mo 

 that fact ; I presume that would be called wholesale. 



COUNSEL I ask your Honor that there be stricken from the evi- 

 dence what the customers of the defendant said to this witness. 



The COURT Yes, sir ; strike it out. 



Q. Do you know that this man was engaged in selling milk at 

 wholesale on the 25th of August ? A. No, sir ; I do not know he 

 was selling milk at wholesale. 



Q. May you not be entirely mistaken in your estimation that 

 he is anything more than a retail milk dealer ? A. He may be a 

 retail and he may be a wholesale dealer ; he kept a milk depot at the 

 time I visited it ; I make that statement now. 



Q. What is the difference between a milk depot and a milk shop ? 

 A. A milk depot means that he has a large quantity of milk on hand 

 to sell. 



Q. How much milk will you state that he had on hand that day, 

 how many cans did you see ? A. I do not remember the exact 

 number of cans ; there were more than one. 



Q. How many contained milk? A, I do not know. 



Q. Did more than one ? A. I do not know, sir. 



Q. You do not know that more than one can contained milk, 

 and yet you swear that he had a quantity of milk there, is 

 that it ? A. No ; I do not swear that he had a large quantity. 



Q. What quantity had he ? A. He had at least twenty quarts in 

 the can. 



Q. That is what you call a large quantity kept by a wholesale 

 dealer? A. No, sir. 



Q, Now I understand you, that you have tested 147 samples of 

 milk in the country ? A. Yes, sir. 



Q. You have also added water to the milk and tested it then 

 with the lactometer after adding water ? A. Yes, sir. 



Q. Did you do that with the genuine milk which you tested in 

 the country? A. No, sir. 



Q. Well, this milk that you added water to and then tested with 

 the lactometer, where did you get that ? A. I got it in the city here. 



Q. Did you know it to be genuine milk ? A. It was a specimen 

 of milk that was analyzed.
