Such are the facts of this riot as they passed under my immediate observatn. Reliable reports of other & important facts have reachd me but they are not germain to my own testimony 
From all I have seen & heard I am satisfied that the whites were the aggressors - that the disturbance had been deliberately pland to break up our meetings - that Southern sympathisers and rebels were the instigators & the actors in the row, and that it was directd against us because of the loyalty of our Church to the general government
