Sarah A. Stone servant John was not sent away by John Manning I cant say he was here 16 Apl with consent of my brother John Manning. I know he was not. I cant say he was driven away. My brother's health was very bad & very bad—my brother is very often in such a state of mind as to say to servants go and no one know any thing about it
I think my brother made efforts to get his servants. I know through his wife that John Alfred & others had gone away & they were trying to get him. Mr M. was not able to attend to summons
Sarah A. Warning I know man know nothing about circumstances. I do not believe he was here with consent of master
