ELIJAH FREENY.
Attested to and written by Henry Page, Clerk.
Lewin J. Pollitt, a witness produced on behalf of claim-
ant being duly sworn, answers and says:
To the first.
A. Fifty-one years; been a voter thirty years; resided in
1865, in district No. 2.
A. Some half dozen . Benjamin Truitt, Nelson Crawford,
William Smith and others, together with myself, applied at
the same time; it was some time between two and three
o'clock in the evening; they were about breaking up for the
day; the Registers took down our names, and William Smith
offered to take the oath, the Registers replied that their hour
was out, to come in some other day and he would administer
the oath. It so happened that two or three of us met at the
same place and for the purpose of taking the oath; Smith,
Crawford and Truitt, went up to demand the oath but were
refused, and they being refused, I did not apply again; I
was present waiting to do it, and was only prevented from
applying, because they were refused.
3d.
A. Did not vote; would have voted for Franklin.
4th. Waived.
Cress-Examination:
Was or not the William Smith mentioned in your exami-
nation in chief registered as a qualified voter?
A. I don't know.
At what time did you make your first application to the
registers ?
A. I don't know precisely, but I think they had had two
or three meetings.
At what time did you make your second application ?
A. I think on the last day of their sitting.
