Q. Did they move when the order came—did they obey the command?
A. Yes; so far as I could see, they did. They behaved as well as the rest did.
Q. They didn't throw down their arms?
A. No.
By Senator Yutzy:
Q. Did you say to them after you heard it, that you would shoot them?
A. I told them I wouldn't let them out. I told the commander that. My company was put on guard as soon as we got into that portion of the grounds.
By Mr. Lindsey:
Q. What attracted your attention was something unusual in that particular command?
A. Yes; they were forming, and I had not received any orders to do so, and was anxious to know what they were forming for.
