General Dyer, is it correct that you ordered your troops to fire at the thickest part of the crowd?

That is so.

1,516 casualties with 1,650 bullets.

My intention was to inflict a lesson that would have an impact throughout all India.

General, had you been able to take in the armoured car, would you have opened fire with the machine gun?

I think, probably – yes.

General, did you realise there were children – and women – in the crowd?

I did.

But that was irrelevant to the point you were making?

That is correct.

Could I ask you what provision you made for the wounded?

I was ready to help any who applied.

General, how does a child, shot with a .303 Lee Enfield, "apply" for help?
