A. No.
Q. Do you know what his occupation is?
A. A one-horse stock dealer. He went around the country buying up calves. I do not know what he is doing now. He is under indictment at present.
Q. Was Hice in the employ of the company at that time?
A. He was when the riot commenced. He has not been since.
Q. You say you ran your train without carrying passengers that refused to pay fare except once. What day was that?
A. It was Friday that I could not do anything with them.
Q. Did you attempt on that day to eject those men?
A. I did, but I concluded it was not going to be very healthy, and I gave it up. They would not get off, and made all sorts of threats. I did not know any of them that made the threats. They threatened that if there was any putting off, they would be the parties to do it, and I would be the one to go off.
