Q. Was there any demoralization during the night in the round-house?
A. Not a particle—so far as I saw—not a particle.
Q. The discipline was good at the time you were in the round-house?
A. Yes; I had sentinels on front, and they observed their duty perfectly, and my whole command was in excellent condition.
By Senator Yutzy:
Q. Was there any disobedience of orders on the part of the officers or men?
A. No; occasionally there would be a man that didn't have any experience in the field, as there will always be men who will shirk their duty. Once in a while there would be a man indifferent to his duty, but that was simply in isolated cases just as you would see in the army. I saw it in the army of the Potomac. As a whole the discipline of the troops in the round-house was excellent.
Q. You state you thought there was some musket firing or rifle firing from the mob at Twenty-eighth street.
A. Yes.
Q. Did you see any musket firing?
