- Major Bolton: Did he look like he was agitated?
- Corporal Sharp: Agitated? Yes, that's it, sir. Yes, sir, he looked agitated.
- Major Thomas: Objection. Major Bolton is leading the witness.
- Major Bolton: I will rephrase the question, sir. Tell me, Corporal Sharp, how did Lt. Handcock look?
- Corporal Sharp: Agitated, sir!
- Sentry: [to Major Thomas] Excuse me, sir. I was in a public house last night, sir.
- Major Thomas: Were you, Sergeant?
- Sentry: Yes, sir. I overheard one of the witnesses talking about the prisoners. In his cups he was, sir. A very indescreet gentleman.
- Major Thomas: [later in court, questioning Corporal Sharp] Have you not been saying in the local pubs that you would walk barefoot from Cape Town to Petersburg to be on a firing party to shoot Lieutenant Handcock?
- Corporal Sharp: [visibly shaken] Well, sir I might have said something like that over a pint, sir. It may have been the beer talking, sir, not me, sir.

- Corporal Sharp: He's a big enough bore, ain't he?
