Mr. Kelly. Do you know it of your own knowledge? Let Captain Hill distinguish between what he saw and knows to be the fact, and what he has heard.
Mr. Justice Maule. Barracoons seem now to be changed into slave establishments. Do you make any point of that?
Mr. Kelly. No, my Lord, I do not; it means the same thing.
Mr. Justice Maule. Are these barracoons for the slaves?
Mr. Serjeant Talfourd. Are the barracoons used for the purpose of warehousing the slaves?—They are for confining the slaves before they are exported.
Is this a plan made by yourself? (handing a paper to the Witness.)—Yes, it is made from my recollection of the river; it has never been surveyed. I made it from my recollection of the spot.
Does it give a representation of the river Gallinas and the barracoons upon it?—Yes it does, to the best of my ability. Those places which are marked black are where the barracoons were, which were destroyed in consequence of Captain Denman and myself going into them and giving directions for that purpose.
It represents them as they were before they were destroyed?—Yes.
Just mention them one after the other, and whose they were.
Mr. Kelly. I do not know how my learned friend intends to show that this is evidence.
