Was there any interruption to your passage?—No. Should I explain?
Tell us the reason?—As I was going down the street, some persons on the pavement desired me—
I do not wish to know what the persons on the pavement desired you to do; I do not wish you to tell us the conversation, but simply to relate what happened?—I passed through them.
By their opening to give you way?—Certainly.
Did you go on that day to Mr. Buxton’s house, and what time did you get there? I got to Mr. Buxton’s house, I should think, a quarter after one.
Did you go into a room there where the magistrates were assembled?—I did.
How long did you remain there?—I should think about from eight to ten minutes.
During the time you were in the room, did Mr. Hunt arrive on the ground?—He was called Mr. Hunt; he was in a barouche.
And a multitude accompanying him?—A vast multitude.
I believe there was a cheer given by the populace at the time when he did arrive?—A tremendous shout.
