I finally induced him to give orders to do the work. This was Thursday. Saturday we did it. After the work was done I met him that same evening. He remained in Capital City seven days afterward. I was so reduced for funds that I prevailed upon him to give me _£_4 of the _£_16 he had left. On landing in this country had _£_3-1/2. Had no bed nor bedding on the ship; slept on the top side of a plank. This in answer to a question by Dr Cronin: I at once complained to Donovan and Maroney, and through them to the executive, or Gen. Kerwin, of the treatment I had received and the culpable neglect of the F C. About the last of February, 1885, Donovan furnished me $10 with which to reach home. The man in charge for the order made me take an oath before leaving to bring the matter before the order. I always supposed Kerwin was a member of the executive. Before leaving America I told Maroney I would take an alias known to me; my alias was the proper name of a man. The imprisoned one bore the alias given to me. This was the agent. He was four miles from the place we worked at. Only three of us did the work. Question by Mr. Ryan--How much money in all did you receive? A.--Four persons in all. $500; of this the agent got $200. We were two months in the country. Then the witness makes a statement that the other man who went with him, whose name I did not read the last time--this man came back six months after. At an expense for material, I should think, of $7,400 in all to cover the enterprise.
