Q. Do you know of any orders having been received by General Brinton from any one or by the hands of any one to make any movement in any direction?
A. Yes; we had one about going out of Pittsburgh, to go east.
Q. After you left the round-house?
A. No; I saw the orders that night. I heard or read all the orders that came. The orders were, as I understood, to take a train down at the work-house, and join the command at Blairsville Intersection. I know we got an order after we were in the round-house, or rather an instruction that Colonel Lyle—we supposed that colonel, and the detachment under Colonel Rodgers, were with Colonel Guthrie, and would join us about daybreak.
Q. Did General Brinton receive any orders to move his command to Torrens station?
A. Not that I am aware of.
Q. Or to join Colonel Guthrie?
A. Not that I am aware of.
