Q. In consequence of that introduction did a considerable intimacy take place between you and the captain?

A. There did.

Q. Were you frequently together?

A. Very frequently; when I first went over to the rules of the Bench, I lodged with Mr. De Berenger in the same house for about one month, till I took a house of my own.

Q. Had you at any time any conversation with Captain De Berenger previous to the 21st of February with respect to Lord Cochrane and Mr. Cochrane Johnstone?

A. Towards the end of January I think, or perhaps the beginning of February.

Q. What was the substance of these conversations?

A. It happened one Sunday between one and two o'clock, Mr. Harrison called upon me, and we were conversing about a pamphlet he was writing.

Q. That Mr. Harrison was writing?

A. Yes; it was relative to the trial between Mr. Basil Cochrane and Mr. Harrison.
