Did you swear information against the members of the Fenian Society in September, 1865?—Yes.
Did you mention one word about me in that? No, I did not, but I told it to Sub-Inspector Hamilton.
Prisoner, I object to that answer.
At two o'clock the court adjourned for an hour.
On the reassembling of the court, at three p.m., the president (Colonel Shute) said that the Court had decided that the witness on cross-examination had a right to explain his answer.
The Deputy Judge-Advocate. The question was, Did you make any mention of the prisoner in your information?
Witness (Warner). I did not. On account of mentioning it to Sub-Inspector Hamilton I did not think that there was any occasion to state it in the informations.
Prisoner. Do you know that I am a Protestant and an Orangeman and a member of an Orange lodge at Delgany?—No.
Are you a Protestant and did you state to me that you were an Orangeman?—I am a Protestant and on my oath I don't think I told you anything about my being an Orangeman, because the society would come on me if I spoke of anything of the sort at all.
Were you always a Protestant, or did you cease to be one? If so, when did you cease to be one? I was always a Protestant, but I went to Mass a few times, as I thought I would get into their graces by being a Roman Catholic and get some of their secrets.
