Abraham Chamberlain sworn. I live in the upper part of the Madawaska settlement, above the Mada- waska river; have resided there four years this Summer; was born at Bay Chaleur; came from there to this Pro\ince four years ago and have always lived since in the Madawaska settlement. Charles Studson presented 292 HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS me a paper, I think in July last. I don't remember seeing Baker. Bacon and Emery, and some other Americans, were present. I was passing by ; they were drinking rum...; they asked me to take some; I agreed. When they handed the paper, I asked whether an}^ of the French had signed it; they said, not yet. The witness being then asked as to the contents of the paper, and the propriety of such evidence being ques- tioned by the court, the Attorney General cited the case of Rex versus Hunt and others, 3 Barn, and Aid. 566, where it was decided, on an indictment for con- spiracy, that secondary evidence of the contents of a paper which was in the defendant's possession was admissible without producing the original, or giving notice to produce it; and that parole evidence of inscriptions and devices on banners and flags is also admissible.
