By Senator Reyburn:
Q. If these orders had been given, do you think that General Brinton would have obeyed them and communicated the fact to you? You consulted together?
A. We did. I think he would have told me certainly if he had such orders. There was hardly any occasion to consult after we left the city.
Q. But during Saturday night?
A. I frequently saw him, and had he received such orders I would have heard of them.
By Senator Yutzy:
Q. Did you consult with him during the march from the round-house to Sharpsburg?
A. During the march, until my brigade was put on the left, I frequently saw General Brinton.
Q. Did you see Colonel Norris?
A. I didn't see him—to know him.
