Q. That is where you went ?
A. That is where I went myself.
JUROR LEVASSEUR : You said that an officer asked you when you would permit them to open fire ?
A. Yes.
Q. Would you please give the name of that officer ?
A. No, I cannot. No I don’t think I can. I can find out.
Q. Is it because you are not permitted to ?
A. No, I cannot. I would be permitted.
Q. You don’t remember ?
A. I can ask him who was the officer, ask him. And they will tell me.
Q. Did he seem anxious to open firing ?
A. No, he was not ; he did not seem anxious. I have never seen any troops or men acting better under fire in France than they did that night.
MR. CHAPLEAU : That is the officer that reported to you that one of his men had been hit ?
A. No, that is another one.
THE CORONER : Juror Picher asks if the machine gun you used at the corner of the Boulevard is the same gun that you generally use in war ?
A. It is the same pattern of gun, Lewis gun, it is not the Colt. There are three or four patterns used at the Front. This is one of them.
JUROR LEVASSEUR : If I understand you said you fired four or five shots yourself with a revolver ?
A. Yes.
Q. What was the object ?
A. When I was going to the cabstand there was a report of five or six shots fired around the corner of St. Valier Street and Laviolette Street. The men did not fire. I was the only one fired in that direction.
