going to say owing to the fog it was hard to tell what was there and it was also hard to judge distances.
MR. LAVERGNE : What lane do you speak of ?
A. This lane to the left.
THE CORONER : Not a lane, a wide street.
A. I had the impression that was a vacant lot on the corner there.
Q. I think you make a mistake.
A. It is a vacant lot. That is quite a narrow street. And this stands …
Q. That is the one you mean : St. Felixine ; this is a lane ?
A. No. That is the street I mean and it is a narrow street, Bagot.
Q. It is a wide street.
A. It may be shown wide.
Q. It is not shown, it is. I dont discuss what it is. But I know it is a wide street. You were under the impression that it was a narrow street ?
A. It was a reasonably narrow street and this is what appears to be a vacant lot with a bill board along at the back.
Q. That is the street.
A. That is what I was referring to by our left flank.
MR. BARCLAY : You mean up Bagot Street.
A. When the reinforcements I mentioned as coming up St. Joseph Street arrived …
THE CORONER : How many men ?
A. In the neighborhood of thirty I should think.
Q. Those are all the soldiers that were there that night ?
A. No. These were reinforcements sent forward to our place.
Q. You said you had only 25, and 30, that is only 55 altogether ?
