Show 340 6528 4518 Bayles- D A No, I was always busy; never went down to the river, as a rule. BY MR. FARNSWORTH: Q Let me ask a question. Did you ever talk with those miners when they were in the store? A Certainly. Q Did they tell you where they were going, and now they were going, at times? A Sometimes, yes. Q I will ask you to state whether or not those miners informed you that they their boats -- or boats on the river, and were going down river to points below Bluff in the canyons to winter? MR. BLACKMAR: Object to that as hearsay testi-mony. THE SPECIAL MASTER: That is pure hearsay. MR. FARNSWORTH: It would be hearsay if it were not of an incident time. THE SPECIAL MASTER: I don't consider 1895 ancient time. MR. FARNSWORTH: We note an exception. |
