Q. Did you see Colonel Norris on your march from the round-house to Claremont?
A. I saw Wilson Norris after we had passed Sharpsburg, between there and Claremont.
Q. Did you receive any orders from him?
A. I have no recollection of receiving any orders from him, and I have questioned my staff who were around me at the time, and they have none.
Q. Neither verbal or written?
A. Neither verbal or written.
Q. Did you receive any orders from any one else before you reached Sharpsburg or Claremont?
A. No.
Q. No orders from any one to go to Torrens station during Sunday?
A. Whilst in the round-house, to proceed east out Penn Avenue, towards Torrens, from General Latta. I did not go there for this reason: Colonel Guthrie was to be at the outer depot at six o'clock in the morning, and we waited there until ten minutes after eight, waiting for him two hours and ten minutes. The suggestions which General Latta gave me were based on Colonel Guthrie's being at Torrens station, but considered I would only be exchanging places with Colonel Guthrie, and for that reason I concluded to go to the arsenal. In the second place, General Latta or the authorities had said it was impossible to ration us.
