To the first} re-direct int. filed:
A. I don't know that I ever did.
The above has been read to me and is correct.
J. J. MATTHEWS.
Written and attested to by H. Page, Clerk.
Samuel S. Costen, a witness produced on behalf of claim-
ant, being duly sworn, answers and says:
To the first interrogatory :
A. Fifty-six years, been a voter thirty-five years, resided
in 1865 in District No. 8.
' 2d.
A. Did apply; took the oath; they (the Registers) asked
me first, who I voted for in 1861, Henry or Crisfield? I told
them, for Henry. Next, if I was to see the two armies in
array, which I would wish to be victorious? I said I did not
care which. Then, if I was in favor of breaking up the
Government? I said no; that I wanted the Union to stand
as it had been. And these, as I recollect, were all the ques-
tions they asked me. No charge; no witness, as I knew of;
I have since examined the books, and find Peter McDaniel
and James Dryden were summoned to testify to my disloy-
alty. I asked them, and they said they did'nt testify any-
thing against my loyalty.
3d.
A. Did vote, and for Franklin, though I was not regis-
tered.
4th. Waived.
Cross-examination.
1st, 2d and 3d. Waived.
4th.
A. I don't know that I have.
5th.
A. I decline to answer.
