back to the hotel. and he was demoted at that time. Q—In his conversation over the telephone yesterday did he make any mention of Joel Baker or the incident when Wayne Coy was saulted? A—He never said a word about Wayne Coy or Joel Baker or the incident. He just said that he regretted that he and I had any difference and asked if I would go to Morrissey for him, which I have done.

first night session a week ago you shook hands with Peter Cancilla and that is the first time you had seen him during this present session of the Legislature you saw him and shook hands with him in* the Harrison Hotel?

Q—Do you know whether Cancilla was armed at any time he was in there? A—That I would not know. Q—You don’t know of anything | else you have not told the Committee? A—No, I just regret the in- | cident happened. It is just a sad | thing which is no fault of ours. I| | hold no bad feeling or animosity | toward the officer.
