Q. Did he say it would be endangered by bringing on a conflict with the mob?
A. I think not. I have no recollection of it.
By Mr. Means:
Q. Did he tell General Brinton there was no small ammunition there?
A. I have no recollection of his saying anything of the kind. He may have told him that he could not get any; but I have no recollection of his saying there was none.
By Senator Yutzy:
Q. How were your troops supplied with ammunition? Did you have sufficient?
A. No; not at that time. The next morning—Monday morning or afternoon—the ordinance return showed that the Third regiment had about three rounds to a man, and the First regiment, I think, an average of ten.
By Mr. Lindsey:
Q. How many did you have on Saturday afternoon when you went out to Twenty-eighth street?
