Q. What time was that? A. Four o'clock, I believe it was. Q. On Monday afternoon? A. Yes, sir. Q. Now you left New York on what date? A. On the 21st. 21st of September. Q. Upon what railroad? A. I took the ship. Q. What transportation company? A. I really don't know which it was. Q. Well, what dock did you leave from? A. I could not tell you, Mister, what dock. I know the steamship's name was Commache (Commanse, so pronounced). Q. Where bound for? A. For Charleston. No, it was bound in fact for Florida, but it stopped at Charleston. Q. You got off at Charleston? A. Yes, sir. Q. What day did you reach Charleston? A. I reached that on Monday--Monday, I believe at five o'clock. Q. In the afternoon? A. In the afternoon; yes, sir. Q. Did you expect Col. Roosevelt at Charleston? A. No, I didn't. Q. What was your purpose in going to Charleston? A. Well, my original intention was to go to New Orleans, and reading the papers I found that he was changing his way of traveling and so this that before the steamship comes to New Orleans why I wouldn't be following him there any more--he would be gone, so I thought I would take Charleston and then get to Atlanta, perhaps I can meet him at Atlanta. Q. Where did you stay there? A. At a boarding house by the name of Mosley House. Q. Do you know the street? A. I believe it is Merlin street, near Main. Q. How long did you stay there? A. I stayed there Monday and I stayed there Tuesday, I think I did. I guess I left the next day. Q. Well, where did you go to from Charleston? A. Charleston I went to Augusta. Q. Where did you stay at Augusta? A. At Augusta I stayed in the Planters Hotel. I have got it in that slip, if I make a mistake it ain't my fault, but I got it all down in every city where I stopped, so if I make a mistake---- Q. You put that down on a slip from time to time? A. Yes, sir. Q. As you went along? A. Yes, sir. I might make a mistake now, and you think I am making you a false statement. Q. Did you meet anyone at Charleston whom you knew? A. No, no; I was a perfect stranger there. Q. Did you meet anyone at Savannah, Georgia? A. Augusta. Q. Augusta? A. No, I was a stranger there. At every place. I didn't know anybody to go to. Q. Did you go to the hotel where Col. Roosevelt was staying at those places? A. No, I didn't. I could not tell where he was going to stop. I could not tell that every time. Now the same as his coming from New Orleans I took a trip down to Birmingham I thought sure he was going to stop at Birmingham. Instead of that he changed his way and he went way to Macon, Georgia. That is the way he deceived me half a dozen times after it was advertised that I could meet him there and there. Q. What day did you get to Chicago? A. Chicago. I arrived if I ain't mistaken, now I might not tell the truth but I guess it, I think it was Friday. Q. Friday morning? A. Friday dinner time, if I ain't mistaken.
