Samuel T. Adams, a witness produced on behalf of Claim-
ant, being duly sworn, answers and says:
1st. Interrogatory:
A. Three years, been a voter eleven years, resided in 1865,
in District No. 6.
2d:
A. Did apply, took the oath, no charge when I took the
oath, I was afterwards informed of a charge, answered the
questions, afterwards I was notified that I was charged with
this expression—" That if the South would accept of any
compromise the North could offer, she ought to be sunk,"
I went before the Registers and denied it, and offered to bring
twenty men to prove I was always in favor of compromise,
and always had been, but they would not summon them nor
allow me to summon them, Mr. Conner, one of the Registers,
who is said to be principal, said it was disloyal to be in favor
of compromise, and said further that public repute said I was
disloyal, the witness had been sworn and had testified to the
above charge before I reached the place of registration, and
his testimony taken in writing.
3d:
A. Did not vote, offered to vote and was informed I was
not registered, would have voted for Franklin.
