Question. Whose regiments was that?

I do not know, sir; I do not know any regiment.

Question. What number of men were there in this regiment?

I did not count that regiment, sir.

By the JUDGE-ADVOCATE:

Question. Upon which day did you make that count of the one hundred and forty-three regiments, Sunday or Monday?

I made the count of the one hundred and forty-two or one hundred and forty-three regiments on Monday. The advance cavalry and a portion of the wagons were passing on Sunday; but no infantry passed on Sunday.

Question. What time on Sunday did the wagons and cavalry pass?

They were passing from 10 o'clock Sunday morning until dark, when I left.

Question. Where did you remain Sunday night?

The greater portion of the night in the woods; the balance I was in a neighbor's house, 4 miles from the road.

Question. When you resumed your position on Monday morning on the hill were infantry or cavalry or any portion of the forces passing?

The infantry were passing.

Question. Had they been passing before you arrived there?

I do not know, sir; they were passing when I got back to my position, but I do not know when they commenced passing.

Question. Could you see down the road any distance?

I could see some 3 or 4 miles in the direction of New Haven; that is, the direction in which they were marching.

Question. At the time you observed them passing how much of this 3 or 4 miles you could see was occupied by the troops?

It seemed to me that the entire distance of 3 or 4 miles was entirely occupied.

Question. Am I correct, then, in saying that you began counting at that time, when you resumed your position there, and counted one hundred and forty-three regiments?

General BUELL. Permit the witness to explain.

The WITNESS. It was about 10 o'clock when I thought the road was entirely filled with troops. I do not know how much of the road was occupied when I began counting.

By the JUDGE-ADVOCATE:

Question. Did you look down that road and count the regiments that had passed at the time you resumed your position?

I did not. The regiments I counted as they passed me and notched them.

Question. You have no idea, then, how many regiments had passed before you resumed your position there to count?

I have not, sir.

Question. Could you see New Haven from your position on the hill?

I could see the steeple of the church very distinctly.

Question. Do you know where Bragg's forces came from on Sunday?

I do not, sir; only by rumor.

By General SCHOEPF:

Question. How long was the whole wagon train?

The wagon train commenced passing between 10 and 11 o'clock Sunday morning
