Redirect examination by General TYLER:

Question. How much nearer can you get from Glasgow to Bardstown by a good, practicable road, suitable for artillery, than by the way of Munfordville?

The turnpike road I would suppose to be nearer. It is about 20 miles from Glasgow to Munfordville to Bardstown about 50 miles by the way of Hodgensville. It is 108 miles from Louisville to Glasgow by the turnpike road.

Question. What distance is Munfordville from where the road from Glasgow to New Haven crosses Green River?

It is about 10 miles below it.

Question. Was General Bragg's army well supplied with provisions when at Munfordville?

Mr. Wintersmith, an old school-mate of mine, who was the general commissary, came to me to know if I had some bacon to sell. I told him I had some, but I thought his money would not suit me; and besides I desired to keep it for my neighbors, and if the possibly could I hoped he would excuse me. He said he would do so; that he had provisions there plenty to last him till he got to Hardin County; there he had 150,000 pounds of bacon already engaged. They made many inquiries of me for flour, and seemed to be in want of breadstuffs, and sent wagons out. Their men complained very much of hunger. Many of them told me they had not eaten a mouthful for three days.

QQuestion. On what principle was Bragg's army supplied with provisions at that point?

I do not know, sir, only from what they asked me as to where they could get flour. I had bought some flour from William Carter, 10 miles above, and Bragg's army sent up and got it.

Question. Did or did not Bragg's army rely upon the country through which they passed for their provisions?

I think they did, sir; I do not know positively of my own knowledge.

Question. Have you any reason to suppose General Bragg did not start with a certain supply of provisions from Chattanooga sufficient to carry him into the productive regions of Tennessee and Kentucky?

I do not know, nor do I know anything of the country, never having been over that portion of Tennessee.

Captain P. P. OLDERSHAW (a witness for the defendant), being duly sworn by the judge-advocate, testified as follows:

By General BUELL:

Question. Captain, state your name and position in the service, if you please; if you were present at the battle of Perryville, and the position you occupied there.

My name is Percival P. Oldershaw. My position is assistant adjutant-general. I was present at the battle of Perryville as assistant adjutant-general to Brigadier General James S. Jackson, commander of the Tenth Division of the First Corps of the Army of the Ohio, commanded by Major General A. McDowell McCook.

Question. What was the position of General Jackson in the army at that time?

He was commanding the Tenth Division of the Army of the Ohio.

Question. From what point did you march on the morning of the 8th of October last, and at what hour did you march?

We started early in the morning, at a point distant about 2 miles from Mackville (it is about 2 miles farther from Perryville than Mackville), and arrived at Mackville about 7 a. m. Here we were detained by the delay of one of General Rousseau's brigades, which was receiving commissary stores, and did not leave there till 8 that morning or a little after, General Rousseau having the advance.
