him at the house of Mr. Manning. This was ill the
morning of the day on which he was to be examined,
as a witness at the bar of the House. At this interview
the conversation turned upon the condition of the Bs:«

influence there. The witness directed his interest
against Mr. Swann, because there was a dispute ba
