Q. Were those difficulties, without asking what they were, particularly personal to Captain De Berenger?
Lord Ellenborough. No; that we cannot ask.
Mr. Park. It goes to character?
Lord Ellenborough. Then put the question to character at once; you must not go indirectly into it, if Colonel Torrens knows his character at all.
Mr. Park. You do not know, personally, his character?
A. I do not, personally.
Q. Are you acquainted with the hand-writing of Mr. De Berenger?
A. Not in the least.
Q. You have never seen him write?
A. I never did.
