RE CROSS EXAMINATION BY MR. PARK.

Q

What time was it when you left home that morning?

A

Well it must have been eight, seven or eight o’clock, maybe nine o’clock.

Q

In the morning?

A

Yes, sir.

Q

And the only way you have of fixing the time is the fact that you ate dinner you supposed at noon?

A

Yes, sir.  Well I had stopped to the house just before that and they were eating dinner so I turned out my team, and I and my little boy, we stopped and ate our lunch on the road.  We generally stop and feed by the side of the road.

Q

You didn’t have any watch with you, you say?

A

No, sir.

Q

And you didn’t look at any clocks that day?

A

No, sir, I didn’t.

Q

Then when you say it was two, or three or four o’clock, it is your best judgment?

A

Yes, sir, that is my best judgment of the time.

Q

Do you always stop exactly at noon to feed, or eat your lunch?

A

As near as I can.
