Show 3655 Cotton- D 1677 Q Did you know their customs? A No, not all of them; I knew something of them, of course. Q Do you speak their language? A Fairly well; that is, enough to get along with, to trade with. Q At the time you have seen the San Juan river have you ever seen any boats on it? A Never have -- yes, I saw one, a boat out on the bank, hold two people, probably, at Shiprock, right after a big flood they had had up in that country. We had to go back to Farmington to cross the river, there and get over to Pueblo Benito Stayed all night there, and then went on to Gallup. MR. BLACKMAR: That is all, Mr. Cotton. CROSS EXAMINATION BY MR. FARNSWORTH: Q Blanco is about fifty miles upstream from Shiprock, isn't it? A Yes sir. MR. FARNSWORTH: That is all. THE SPECIAL MASTER: That is all. |
