A. No, sir.
Q. Said nothing to the engineers?
A. No, sir. All the man done was this. [Waving his hands.]
Q. Did you take that to be a signal to stop?
A. I supposed so. I was in the rear, and Mr. Fox told me. He says, "Shaffer, you go in the rear, and get on the train." Says I, "All right, Mr. Fox." Just as I got ready to jump on, the train stopped.
By Mr. Engelbert:
Q. This man that made these signals, was he on the track in front of the engine?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. How far were you from the engine?
A. I went to jump on. I went to get on, and I seen the young man doing this. Some of them hooted and cheered, and then she stopped.
