Q. This double-header, on Thursday, I believe, was thirty-six cars and two locomotives?
A. We started to go out with some four or five policemen on each locomotive. Sheaffer and I was on the rear part of the train, and we made several attempts to go out, and the engineer on the first locomotive he jumped off, and the crowd cheered him. Then he got back on to his locomotive, and got his coat out of the box and put it on, and they both left their engine. There was nobody to hinder them going out, that I could see.
Q. Do you suppose they could run out, and did you have sufficient force to protect them?
A. There was sufficient force to protect them.
