Question. What appeared to be the contents of the two thousand wagons that you saw?

A portion of them seemed to be hauling ammunition, a portion provisions, and a portion of them seemed to be entirely empty.

Question. Was the quantity of provisions large or small?

I thought small.

Question. At what time in the day did the rear guard of cavalry pass that you speak of?

A portion of the cavalry was stationed and planted cannons upon the top of Muldraugh's Hill for some three or four days; the larger portion of them, with their cannons, then went to New Haven, and there were some 300 or 400 of them captured. The capture was on Monday morning.

By the JUDGE-ADVOCATE:

Question. Please look at the map and point out the place where you made your observations.

It was 5 miles from New Haven, on the road from Glasgow to Bardstown.

Question. Please state how far you were from the road when you counted the troops.

About 50 yards.

By General SCHOEPF:

Question. Please state the length of time that it occupied the whole rebel army to pass through.

The main portion were passing from Sunday, 10 o'clock in the morning, and passed until Monday night, when I quit counting; but were passing more of less until the Monday morning following.

Question. Did you stand there all the time during the march?

I did not, sir; I was not there of nights at all.

Question. Were you there during the whole time of Sunday and Monday?

I was there from 10 o'clock Sunday morning until dark Sunday night. I was there from after sunup in the morning on Monday till dark, and the greater portion of the days up to Monday morning following.

Question. What object had you in counting the troops? Did your memory serve you in counting them or did you keep a written account of the different troops?

Fearing that I would be captured by the army, and by some threats made to my family as to my whereabouts, I was induced to secrete myself for safety; to leave my home and get upon the hill, where I had a view of 4 miles of the road, and in full view of my house and family, feeling as all men feel banished from home and possession of my house and premises taken by the army. I sat there secreted, and notched upon an old stake-cut a notch for every regiment, or that which I supposed to be a regiment; the notches are there still. I had no view in counting the regiments except as I was banished from home and had some anxiety to know the strength of the army.

By General TYLER:

Question. Were you in sight, where you could be seen by the enemy at they passed?

I was seen once, sir. On seeing me they observed there was "a damned Yankee," and to "come down from there." I made a move as if to leave, and they replied that if I attempted to run they would shoot me.

Question. Did you come down in answer to their demand?

I did not, sir; I remained still till that regiment passed and then got more out of sight.
