MR. EVANS:  I could not tell you, sir.  No. 10 was the last boat, the big boat.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Did you see the Titanic after you rowed away from where she was?
MR. EVANS:  Yes, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  How far did you go away?
MR. EVANS:  About 200 yards.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  How much of the bow was under the water when you left?
MR. EVANS:  She was about 10 feet from the port bow light, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  How far did your boat have to go to get to the water?
MR. EVANS:  It would be guesswork if I told you.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  As near as you can tell.
MR. EVANS:  I should say about 50 feet.  I could not tell.  I was paying so much attention­­
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Could you see the boat well after you pulled away from her?
MR. EVANS:  You could see her when the lights were clear, and then until she gave the final plunge.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Did the boat go to pieces or come in two?
MR. EVANS:  She parted between the third and fourth funnels.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  What makes you say that?
MR. EVANS:  The foremost part was gone, and it seemed as if the engines were all gone out.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  You could see the forepart was all gone and you could see the stern come up horizontally?
MR. EVANS:  Yes, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  After the forepart had disappeared the stern came up and was horizontal with the surface of the water?
MR. EVANS:  Yes, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  And how much of the stern; up to what part of the ship; to the funnels?
MR. EVANS:  From the after funnel to the ensign mast.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  About how much of the ship was afloat then, after the forepart had gone down?
MR. EVANS:  I should say about 200 feet was afloat; that is, of the stern part.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Could you see that clearly in the outline?

MR. EVANS:  .  You could see that in the outline.  Then she made a sudden plunge, and the stern went right up.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Then she plunged forward and went right down?  
MR. EVANS:  Plunged forward, perpendicular, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  How long was the stern afloat in that horizontal position?
MR. EVANS:  About four or five minutes, I should judge.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  You were too far away to see whether there were any passengers on the stern?
MR. EVANS:  Yes, sir; I was too far away to see that.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Was there any light in this boat, No. 10?
MR. EVANS:  No, sir.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  No lantern?
MR. EVANS:  No lantern, at all.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Was there any in No. 12, do you know?
MR. EVANS:  I could not say about No. 12.
SENATOR FLETCHER:  Were there any other supplies in No. 10?
MR. EVANS:  In No. 10, yes, sir; there was in the tank forward, and the aft one was loaded with biscuits and kegs of water, with a small drinking cup.
SENATOR SMITH:  I will ask the sergeant at arms if the captain of the Mount Temple is here?
MR. CORNELIUS:  We have not seen him.  He has not reported to anybody.
SENATOR SMITH:  Then we will stand adjourned until 10 o'clock to­morrow morning.
     At 6 o'clock the subcommittee adjourned until to­morrow, Saturday, April 27, 1912, at 10 o'clock a.m.
