2. Do you know Louisa J. Fortner, claimant?
A. I have known her for six or seven years; and have lived inside of three miles of her during that time.
3. Have you known her character for virtue and morality during that time?
A. I think I have.
4. What has it been?
A. Very good, I reckon.
5. Have you ever heard, during the past three years, that she has been guilty of any lewd or immoral conduct or kept a house of ill fame, or anything of that kind?
A. No, sir. I think I would have heard it, if it had been so. As far as I know, or have heard, I have not known or heard any thing wrong with her since I have known her. I have been living in the same yard with her for 6 or 8 months and during that time her conduct has been proper.
6. Have you any interest in this claim, or any relationship or connection to claimant?
A. None.
