This is only a draft

ere you telling us fair copy produced
later was different from this?
It would be the same.
So fair copy would also end on 20th?
No. I would record entries for whole month.
It is correct this draft would have been different from fair copy?
I mean all the entries that appear in this draft would be identical to entries in fair copy up to that date.
So far as you can remember?
Yes. The names of the stalls would be the same. I cannot remember why no further entries were entered after 20th. You say this was a draft and fair copy will include same stall names as draft but other information might be different?
Correct.
Why do you say this was a draft?
After I had prepared this copy I transferred particulars of same into another sheet of paper but I wrote the particulars in a tidy manner for Mia Hak Shing to see.
What does the character "Ching" mean on the top does it not mean fair copy?
Yes.
So this was not a draft then but a fair copy?
Although "ching" means fair copy the figures entered in Chinese were not tidily written so I had to prepare another copy
for Ma's perusal.
And other copy you prepared would contain the whole of the month?
Yes.
Exh.P71 referred and shown to witness. That one also seems
to stop on 20th?
Yes.
Is that also a draft?
Yes.
Would fair copy also include a whole month?
Q
A.
Yes.
