Excerpt from Testimony Taken by the Joint Select Committee, Vol. 3: To Inquire Into the Condition of Affairs in the Late Insurrectionary States Livingston, Alabama, November 2, 1871. Sheperd Fenderson (colored) recalled. The Chairman. I am informed that you want to correct some statement in your testimony. You can do so now. The Witness. The rumor has got out in some way I do not understand it that I was the principal person who said that they knew all about the death of Robin Westbrook, and it was regarded by Dr. Smith as said by me before this committee. I want from this committee, if you please, to give me a certificate to prove that I did not say that Dr. Smith was the principal one in killing Robin Westbrook. That is the rumor that has gotten out. By Mr. Blair: Question. Did you say that? Answer. I did not. Question. You did not intend to say that? Answer. I did not intend to say that, if I did say it. Question. You wish to state that you did not intend to implicate Dr. Smith in any way in the murder of Westbrook? Answer. Not at all, sir. Question. That you did not know he was concerned in it, and did not intend to say so? Answer. And did not intend to say so. Mr. Blair. My recollection is this: I asked the witness the question. I think he said Dr. Smith was suspected; that is about all I think that he said on that subject. The Witness. That was about what I said, sir; he was suspected. Mr. Blair. But that you did not know anything about it, and that you did not in tend to implicate him in it? The Witness. Yes, sir; that he passed my house that night after the death of Rob. Westbrook, going to his plantation, on horseback. Mr. Blair. I will give you a note. Demopolis, Alabama, October 26, 1871. Nathan L.Stewart sworn and examined. The Chairman.

I am living about six miles from here, near Jefferson. Question. On the road to Jefferson? Answer. Yes, sir. Question. How long have you lived there? Answer. I have been living there since the last of December last. Question. Do you recollect the circumstances of the killing of a man named West brook, or hearing of it? Answer. Yes, sir. Question. Do you recollect the time it occurred? Answer. I think, as near as I can recollect, it was about the middle of August; I never paid much attention to the time. Question. Are you acquainted with a gentleman named Sib Lipscomb? Answer. Yes, sir. Question. Do you know where he was at the time this murder took place? Answer. Yes, sir. Question. Where was he? Answer.
