Answer. Yes, sir; right smart of them, in an old coal boat. I saw one man start up the bank after he was shot in the arm, and then a fellow knocked him back into the river with his carbine, and then shot him. I did not go up the hill after I was shot. I laid in the water like I was dead until night, and then I made up a fire and dried myself, and staid there till the gunboat came along. Question. Did they shoot you more than once? Answer. No, sir. * * * * * Henry Christian, (colored,) private, company B, 6th United States heavy artillery, sworn and examined. By Mr. Gooch: Question. Where were you raised? Answer. In East Tennessee.
