A. Yes, sir. When I started on the visit to Boyle’s camp, I said to Dr. Thomas, if occasion requires my presence in any business, you will act in my capacity as chairman of the commission; and as acting chairman of the commission he made this arrangement, and so notified me.
Q. After that what followed?
A. I protested against the meeting, but subsequently yielded to the opinions of Gen. Canby and Dr. Thomas,—Mr. Dyer and I dissenting.
Question by judge-advocate. Had General Canby a weapon on his person?
A. Not that I am aware of.
Q. Had Dr. Thomas?
A. I know he had not.
All the foregoing testimony was faithfully interpreted to the prisoners.
The commission thereupon adjourned to meet at 9:30 A.M. to-morrow morning.
