Q. Are you well acquainted with General Brown?
A. I have known him five or six years. He has a very fine record in the army. He used to be adjutant in our corps.
Q. Stood well, up to this time, in the National Guard?
A. Excellently well.
Q. Do you know that he was at that time laboring under any physical or mental disability?
A. No, I do not, except that he struck me as being most terribly fussy, and … a whole lot of information that it was not worth while bothering with.
Q. Did he strike you at that time as laboring under any mental disability?
A. No; I would not at all have considered that.
