How many were there?—About a dozen.
Were they entire on board when you first went on board the vessel?—Yes.
Where were they?—They were on one side the kelson, full of water.
Who was in command of the vessel at that time?—A person of the name of Mottley, apparently to me assumed the command.
Did you see Jennings there?—Yes.
Do you know a man called Bernardos?—No, I do not.
Did you receive any directions, I do not ask what they were, to do any thing with the casks?—
Mr. Kelly. I do not understand here, how this is evidence against Mr. Zulueta. The cause has lasted quite long enough, without our having all the directions given by all persons.
Mr. Serjeant Talfourd. My question was simply: Did you receive any directions from any person? I put that, and was putting it in the most unexceptionable manner.
Mr. Kelly. I will not object; go on.
