| SIXTH DAY....TuEspAY, Feo. d
The Court me, ct 10 o'clock, and after the read
ing OF the minutes,
| Mr.. Wales was recalled, and continued the re-
mainder of his narration as reported In The III
bune in the proceedings before the Court OF In
qury.
The Judge Advocate then cross-exanined tha
witness. as follows Spencer never gave me any
money; Small was not man particularly shrewd
or simple; ne understood navigation, and had been
mate of vessel; had never INDUCED in any mu-
.inous conduct or language in the presence OF Mr..
Spencer to induce him to communicate his intend
ed mu,iny me.
| @. Assuming Mr. Spencer to have been in jest,
and that Small had made disclosure of what had
passed between Spencer and yourself, what would
have been your predicament?
This question was substitute for long argu-
menta,on on one which had been objected TO by Mr..
Duer, and which was changed by the order of the
Court.
/ A. ! don't know.
did not see The written scheme spoken of at
the time, but did afterwards, when ii was found
in his locker don't know that that was the same
eaper except from the description he gave me- he
did not tell me my name was on the paper Ii II
was on any list previous to my conversation with
him, ii wss without my consent The crew was
composed of 100 men and boys al! told-abou,
half or ,wo-thirds boys.
The Judge Advocate here proposed another long
argumentative question similar to the previous one
which had been objected to.
Mr.. Daer again objected, and The Court was
again cleared. On its re-opening. it was proposed
in nearly the same words, as follows:
When Mr.. Spencer told you he intended to
make scufiie some night when he had the mid
watch, run with his associates TO the main mast,
call Mr. Rogers and throw him overheard, did you
tell him that would be likely to the men and
prevent him from going with his plan, which
ne told you was to open the arr-chest and to dis
tribute arms the men, and to station the men at
the matches, and proceed in person to the cabin to
murder the Commander and the officers in the
ward-room and Storage, and of showing the two
after guns around so as to rake the deck and to
call up the crew select those to be thrown over
board, considering he had but twenty associates
| in crew of one hundred and twenty men and
boys
Mr. Duer still objected, and the Court djourn-
ed till this "wednesday morning at 10 o'clock,
when Dir. Duer will present his objections in
writing.
Previous to the separation of the members of
the Court Mr. Duer said he placed in Pecu-
liarly unpleasant and painful position as having to
object to this course of proceeding the part Of
the Judge Advocate while his client, Captain Mac
kenzie wished no objection to be taken, but the
trial to be allowed TO go in any manner it might
be chosen to condnct it. He (Mr. D could not,
however, he said, while the case was in his hands,
allow any precedent to be set up or adopted which
he believed to be dangerous rejudical to the in
terests and rights of the Navy. His client wished
whatever course might be adopted in any prosecu-
ton of him might be unobstructed, but Re (Mr.
D. could not allow this course to be pursued with
out Directing to it as he conceived it to be highly
prejudica the interests OF others thanhis client,
who felt that nothing that could be done, could ia
jure him.
The Judge Advocate who had several times at
tempted TO interrupt Mr.. Duer, now said: Do
understand Mr.. Duer saying that the course
am pursuing is that of persecution
Mr. Duer. mean to say that this course OF ex-
animation is one wholly unprecedented and which
have never known to be tole, aed in u Court OF
Justice before.
/ Judge Advocate On, then, we understand each
other, for | maintain that they have been allowed.
The members of the Court then separated, Mr..
Duer saying he would prepare bis objections, which
were to be very brief, present The Court at lis
meeting in the morning.
