Q. You are sure of that?
A. So far as I know. I did not see it.
Q. You would have noticed it if he had?
A. I should think so.
Q. Did you see the sheriff?
A. I did not know Sheriff Fife, but a man was pointed out to me as Sheriff Fife, and I would know him again if I was to see him. The man that was pointed out to me had a straw hat on.
Q. You are sure General Pearson was not pointed out to you?
A. No, sir; I am sure of that. No man need point out General Pearson to me.
Q. You are sure somebody did not say in that crowd, "There is General Pearson along with the sheriff's posse."
A. Not to my recollection. There was no one told me that. When they came up, General Pearson, Sheriff Fife, and some other man—and who this man was I did not know—was kind of together. They were at the head of the column, and came up the railroad just as they halted, and before they formed an open square.
