3:34:00
I wasn't there when he was relieved.
3:34:03
I don't know what he did
to convince Mr Maryk he was sick.
3:34:07
For the safety of the ship
I obeyed Mr Maryk's order. -
3:34:12
- Until higher authority either
endorsed or overruled his action.
3:34:17
When Captain Queeg
was in command of the Caine. -
3:34:21
- Did you ever observe
any evidence of insanity in him?
3:34:25
I can't answer that.
I'm not a psychiatrist.
3:34:29
Did you have any reason
to think Queeg might be insane?
3:34:41
Prior to 31 July, did Maryk
suspect Queeg of being mentally ill?
3:34:47
Yes, sir. Maryk showed me a log
he had written on Queeg's behaviour.
3:34:53
Did you believe that log justified
the relief of Captain Queeg?
3:35:01
- Well, sir...
- Yes or no?
3:35:09
No, sir.
3:35:12
Maryk persuaded Mr Keith and me to
go with him to see Admiral Halsey.
3:35:19
On board the flagship I told him the
log didn't justify such action. -
3:35:25
- And that we'd be charged
with mutiny.
3:35:28
Were you surprised
when Maryk relieved the captain?
3:35:32
I was flabbergasted.
3:35:35
- Were you pleased?
- Maryk was a close friend.
3:35:41
I anticipated that he would
be involved in great difficulty.
3:35:48
- No further questions.
- No questions.
3:35:53
- Will you recall the witness?
- No, sir.
3:35:58
- No cross-examination?
- No, sir.
