Q. Colonel Guthrie's regiment at Torrens station, and General Brinton's command—he was trying to get them to form a junction, so that they could be used?
A. Yes, sir.
Q. Were there any other troops within the reach of the city?
A. I think there was. The second detachment of the First division was on its way, and it must have been near the city, some place.
Q. Who was commanding that regiment?
A. Colonel Rodgers, I think.
Q. Do you know where they were that night?
A. No; I do not know of my own knowledge, at that time. I know, since, they were within a few miles. They were, I suppose, twelve or fourteen miles, perhaps less; but they were without ammunition.
Q. What time did you leave the Monongahela house, and where did you go from there?
A. We left the Monongahela house and took a boat and went to Beaver.
