Q. How did you get at it then?-A. I took it down at the time; I made that memoran dum from the face of my notes.

Q. And the vote for Mr. Peelle was 541 majority over Mr. English as based upon the return made for Mr. English by the board of canvassers?-A. By comparison; yes, sir; it is my actual count.

Q. But you did not vary the total for Mr. English ?-A. Yes, sir; and you too.

Q. Did you compare the total vote of Mr. English as counted by you with the return? A. Yes, sir.

Q. What difference was there between the total vote for Mr. English as counted by you and the returns as made by the board?-A. You have got to take the two together and compare them.

Q. I will ask you if it is not a fact that Mr. English, according to your count, had 50 or 60 less votes than were actually returned to him by the board?-A. No, sir.

Y. Did he have 40?-A. No, sir.

Q. Dil he have 30?-A. No, sir.

Q. Did he have 20?-A. Less than the aggregate vote?

Q. Yes, sir; as counted by you, than was returned by the board?-A. I could not say. Q. Did he have a less vote as counted by you than was returned by the board ?—A. I don't recollect about that.

Q. Do you remember whether Mr. Peelle had any less vote as counted by you than returned by the board of canvassers ?-A. In the aggregate I think he had. I know he had.

Q. I will ask you if Mr. Peelle did not have a greater number of votes, according to the count as made by yourself, than returned by the board of canvassers?—A. No, sir; I have no recollection on that subject.

Q. Can you explain how you got at the difference in that vote?-A. Yes, sir; I counted the ballots, five at a time, and kept a tally on the vote for Congress, and I footed that up, and there was always a period after we got through one before we took up another, for the purpose of verifying, and I took advantage of that time to foot up and make my comparison with the tally-sheet, which I had before me, and then I made my note as to the difference in the vote. After we got entirely through I sat down with my notes on Friday and I footed them up, and I kept a memorandum of the difference in the majorities; no, the plurality; that is, the vote between yourself and Mr. English.

Q. You kept simply the difference in the plurality?-A. Yes, sir. And I footed that up and I made this statement. And that is the result of the count made in that way and noted in that way.

Q. I will ask you now if that is a fair way of arriving at the actual difference in the vote between Mr. English and Mr. Peelle on that election?--A. I think so; I think I got the facts.

Q. You made a comparison simply in the pluralities?-A. Yes, sir. I did not count the Greenback vote as anything in the contest, because it was so small.

Q. I ask you again if you did not accept the return made by the board of canvassers, so far as Mr. English was concerned, in arriving at that conclusion?-A. No, sir; except the figures of the missing precinct.

Q. You took your count of the vote for Mr. English, the total vote instead of the returns for Mr. English, did you? A. Yes, sir; and Mr. Peelle the same way; and I added to it the report of the board of canvassers in the second precinct in the twelfth ward.

Q. I will ask you if at any time any one went over the figures with you in getting at this conclusion.-A. No, sir; I did that myself. I did not mention it to anybody.

Q. How long after you left the room there where you counted these ballots was it before you made this statement?-A. Well, I went home that afternoon. We quit at 3 o'clock. I went home about 4. I went to rest. I was very tired and I was worn out, and some time in the middle of the forenoon following, on the 28th of November, on Friday. Q. What did you do with the figures that you made there in that room?-A. The impression I have is that they are home. I think I put that memorandum away some place. I am not sure about it.

Q. Do you think you could find those figures?-A. I will make the effort. I do not say I can. I have given you the facts as I understand them.

Q. I want to know what you made the total vote for Mr. Peelle and Mr. English at that election, according to your count?

(Objected to as having been asked several times before.)

A. I stated before that I could not tell you that, because I have not got the figures with me.

Re-examination by Mr. WILSON:

Q. I will ask you if you found errors against Mr. Peelle in the original count as made by the board of canvassers, and the return?-A. Yes, sir

Q. Did you find errors in his favor?-A. Yes, sir.

Q. This plurality which you have given here is the result of your count, taking into consideration errors in his favor and against him too?-A. That is as near the actual count as I could make it.

Q. Did you pursue the same method as to Mr. English?-A. Yes, sir.

Questions by Mr. PEELLE:

Q. But the basis of your calculations here is the return made of the vote for Mr. English in getting at the vote for Mr. Peelle?-A. You mean the board of canvassers? Q. Yes, sir.-A. The comparison as to the errors was made, of course, with the board of canvassers.

Q. And the 541 votes which you say Mr. Peelle had in this county majority, was that much of a vote over the vote for Mr. English as returned by the election board?—A. It was that much as compared-it was that much according to my actual count as compared with the board of canvassers.

Q. Did not your count of the vote for Mr. English correspond exactly with the vote as returned for Mr. English in the final conclusion?--A. No; I do not say that. I simply say that my vote shows 541 plurality in Marion County, and the board of canvassers shows 640.

Q. I want to know if you did not get that majority for Mr. Peelle from the return made by the election board instead of your own count?-A. I took that board of canvassers as the basis for comparison.

Q. Did your vote differ from the vote as cast for Mr. English as returned by the board?— A. You are getting at aggregates again?

Q. Yes, sir.-A. I could not tell you about that; I could not say.

Q. I will ask you if it was not the same?-A. No, sir.

Q. How much difference?-A. It is impossible to tell; there were too many errors in the count to make it the same.

Q. If there was any difference state what it was between your count and Mr. English's vote as returned for him.-A. You mean aggregate?

Q. Yes, sir.-A. I cannot do that because I have not got the memorandum with me; I will be glad to furnish it to you if I can find it.

Questions by Mr. WILSON:

Q. Didn't you find errors all along in that count as to all those other candidates? (Objected to as immaterial.)

I re

A. Yes, sir; I could give you an illustration if it is necessary, but it is not. member distinctly in one count for Congressman there were 3 votes-2 or 3-where Mr. English's name was pasted upon the Republican ticket and they were counted as straight Republican tickets. They were counted against him when the board of canvassers counted them.

Questions by Mr. PEFLLE:

Q. You spoke about errors here. When there was a tally of 5 votes you counted that as one error. You don't mean by that that there were not more than 100 errors against Mr. Peelle in that count?-A. I mean it may have affected 100 votes, but not 100 distinct errors.

Q. I mean there was more than 100 errors discovered-amounting to more than 100 votes against Mr. Peelle.-A. Yes, sir; and English, both-the same way.

Q. Was there more than 100 votes errors against Mr. English?-A. In my count? Q. Yes, sir.-A. No, sir.

Q. There were more errors in the vote as cast for Mr. Peelle than the one as cast for Mr. English?-A. The aggregate number of votes might do that.
