Show Q . What I ( don't dont ) 1075 understand is why you should expect to find it there unless it had been generally there in the past . I may be stupid , but I ( don't dont ) really see . A . That ( is- is ) where we last seen it , as I say . Q . You would expect to find it where ( yo'U' yoU ) , last saw it ? A . Where we last saw it . Mr . BLACKMAR . I think the word ( "expect" expect ) means more ( "hope hope ) . " The SPECIAL MASTER . I ( don't dont ) know whether it does or not . The WITNESS . We hope to find it . ( R . 4252 . ) The SPECIAL MASTER . The witness ( didn't didnt ) say so . Personally , I ( don't dont ) think he does , either . I think the ( witness' witness ) last answer makes it clearer to my mind than it was before , that he would look for it at the place he last saw it , he would expect to find it in the place he last saw it . ( R . 4249-4253 . ) In a long straight stretch of river the channel is generally broken and changes from one side to the other with ( manjr many ) little streams . ( R . 4253 . ) Q . Where there is not any braided channel but this one stream of water , say it is confined between walls so it can not get out and spread and make this shallow condition you have told us about , where do you usually find the deep part of the river ? A . There is no particular system to that ; sometimes it is along the bank , possibly in the middle , maybe on the other bank . ( R . 4253 . ) |
