Q. Men that had been discharged, did you see any of that kind?
A. I did not see any of the kind.
Q. What did you, in connection with other railroad men, do to try and stop this?
A. We did not do very much, for we could not. It seemed as though everybody was intimidated, and felt himself afraid to undertake to do anything. I did, I know, as one by myself. I do not think, in a crowd of men, it would have been useless to try to stop the burning at nine o'clock in the morning.
Q. Sunday morning?
A. Sunday morning. The whole yard was in flames.
Q. Did you have any communication with the committee that was sent up from Harrisburg?
A. I did; I believe I did.
Q. State what that was?
A. General Brown came to me in the morning—about five o'clock.
