I John Riordan, of lawful age, testify, that on Monday eve-
ning the fifth instant, between 10 and 11 o'clock, I was at
the British coffee-house and heard Mr. Wells, the master of the
Rose man-of-war, say that he had done more than ever he did in his
life, pointing to his hat, out of which he had pulled the cockade,
and continued, that all the boats were hoisted out, the barge par-
ticularly, which had not been before for four months. Said master
had at the same time something that appeared like arms under
his coat, which he said were good stuff--that he knew of this
before (meaning as I thought the massacre of that evening) and
had sent one boat after another on shore for orders, but having no re-
turn, had come himself in the barge.     JOHN RIORDAN.

he thought so, replied, This affair will get home, and the people
here will be disarmed as they are in Ireland.
