Q. Where did these stones and missiles come from?
A. The things I saw thrown were right from back of what we call a switch-tender's shanty. There is a little shanty we call the switch-tender's shanty. It was parties standing back of that—I could see it from where I was standing—most of them that were thrown.
Q. How much of a shower of stones was it?
A. There was no shower. There was not even a slight storm. It was not what I would call a shower of stones.
Q. Only two or three stones thrown?
A. There might have been—I guess I saw six or seven. There were lumps of mud and pieces of wood. I do not think I saw a stone. I did see mud—that is, hard mud seemed to be taken from the side of the hill.
Q. Did you see one of those soldiers fall, in the ranks that marched down there?
A. Yes, sir; there was one of them fell, and they picked him up, and took him into the hospital grounds. He was sun-struck, or something of that kind.
Q. How do you know he was sun-struck?
A. That is what some of his comrades claimed. Before they got to Twenty-eighth street this man dropped. He seemed to be a Jew, from his looks. The boys used the expression: "Let the damned Jew lay there." The railroaders got water for him, and bathed him.
