Major Lewis, at the first noise of the attack, left Captain Bullitt, with fifty Virginians, to guard the baggage, and hastened with the main part of his men to the scene of action. The contest was kept up for some time, but the confusion was irretrievable. The Indians sallied from their concealment, and attacked with the tomahawk and scalping-knife.
I only wanted to know I thought it might be proper for you to say whether or not their opinions which you heard them express were favorable to the series of arrangements, I would call them, that were made for the consideration of this treaty. Mr. BULLITT. It is no secret that Mr. Lansing, Gen. Bliss, and Mr. Henry White objected very vigorously to the numerous provisions of the treaty.
We then discussed various other matters in connection with the treaty. The CHAIRMAN. Are you through? Senator KNOX. Yes. The CHAIRMAN. Mr. Bullitt, you put into the record or read here, I think, some extracts from the minutes of the Council of Ten? Mr. BULLITT. Yes, sir. The CHAIRMAN. Were you present at any of these meetings? Mr. BULLITT. I was not, sir.
BULLITT. Tchitcherin was Peoples' Commisar for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Republic and Litvinov was the former Soviet Ambassador to London, the man with whom Buckler had had his conversation, and who was now practically assistant secretary for foreign affairs. I also had a conference with Lenin.
The CHAIRMAN. He held no official position? Mr. BULLITT. No. Senator BRANDEGEE. Who advised him to go? Mr. BULLITT. I did. Senator BRANDEGEE. Is he in the country now? Mr. BULLITT. I do not believe so. I believe he is still in Europe. The wife of Zinoviev, Madame Lelina, is in charge of the social institutions in the city of Petrograd.
Judge Bullitt, from the Supreme bench in Kentucky, Judge Morris of the Circuit Court of Illinois, Judd and Robinson, lawyers and candidates for the highest State offices, Col.
Senator BRANDEGEE. The President stated to us that that was practically what he had submitted to the Niagara conference here when the ABC powers from South America were discussing the Mexican question. He had then considered it as an article for American use on this continent. Do you know what the attitude of Gen Smuts was as to article 10 as proposed by the President? Mr. BULLITT. I do not, sir.
They desire to avoid this expedient if in any way it shall be possible, but if absolutely necessary they are ready to adopt it in order to begin the restoration of the normal life of the country. Senator KNOX. To whom did you hand that report? Mr. BULLITT. I handed copies of this personally to Secretary Lansing, Col. House, Gen. Bliss and Mr.
Judge Ballard comes along and says: 'What a stimulus he should be to us in our dull lives! How he shows us the big, vital bits! and her at that very minute going into Bullitt & Fleishacker's to buy shoes for her nine year old twin grandsons! And the Reverend Mrs.
BULLITT. It was acted upon in a very lengthy, long-drawn-out manner. Immediately on my return I was first asked to appear before the American Commission. First, the night I got back I had a couple of hours with Col. House, in which I went over the whole matter. Col. House was entirely and quite decidedly in favor of making peace, if possible, on the basis of this proposal.
