Q. If I understand the arrangement during the month of April, 1885, you collected thirty-five cents per barrel for all oil shipped by George Rice, and paid ten cents to the receiver of the railroad company and twenty-five cents to the Macksburg Pipe Line?

A. Yes, sir; as long as Mr. Rice shipped.

Q. Afterwards the Macksburg Pipe Line Company sent the money thus paid to it to you, and you paid the money into the depository of the railroad company on the 29th of October, 1885?

A. Yes, sir.
