Question. Were you acquainted with the accused when you saw him on the 28th of August, and did you know what his serviced had been in the army during this rebellion?

Question. Favorably or otherwise?

Answer. Favorably.

Question. Have you had any interview with the accused since the 28th of August?

Answer. I do not remember of having had any interview with him. I have met him occasionally, and spoken to him, not to amount to anything, or to make any impression on my mind. i do not think I have exchanged a half a dozen words with him.

Question. Have you had any correspondence with him since the 28th of August?

Answer. No, sir; not that I remember.

Question. When you have seen him since, and when, as you say, you have spoken to him occasionally, did you exchange the usual civilities between officers and gentlemen?

Answer. I believe I have. I may have omitted it from absent-mindedness. I believe I have always exchanged them.

Question. If you did it, when you did it were you then under the impression that the accused had been a traitor in the Pope campaign?

Answer. Yes, sir; and I have not changed that impression.

Question. Was it your sole purpose in visiting him on the 28th to inform him in regard to the ammunition for his corps?

But my main purpose, the immediate reason for riding over to see him, was to ask if he could tell me in what direction General Pope had gone, and ho I could get to his headquarters. And I am confident I am correct in this impression, because I remember of inquiring in the corps, riding up to a house which I supposed would prove to be the headquarters of some one, but I got no satisfaction there.

Answer. Yes, sir; and he told me what road.

Answer. I know the in this instance there was a memorandum handed to me of the amount General Porter wanted.

And Lieutenant Shunk, an ordnance officer from our headquarters, was also present. My
