Q. I am informed that the main body of men — perhaps I don’t express myself correctly — I am informed that the main body of men were congregated at the corner of St. Joseph, St. Valier and Bagot Streets, is that right ?
A. No.
Q. And that parties were going out riding from that ?
A. No. Just show me where that is on the map.

Q. What I mean is the main body in that locality ?
A. The way I explain that is, the main body was down at the station. Just see if I make this clear to you. The main body was at the station ; the next largest body was out there. This was only a few men, I should judge, roughly between 50 and 75 men were there.
