Captain Malm, who gave his na tionality as American and said he had been in Hong Kong since 1923, said he was appointed agent for the "Chun Hing" by the owners in Saigon and that he had been unable to get payment for work which had been carried out for them. With regard to the present claim he could not re- "CHINA" LADIES' HAIR DRESSING cognise it as no written authority was given by him for the hire of the launch.
Judge's Reproof Cross-examined by Mr. Hugh Jones, witness replied that he could not agree that a launch was necessary to swing to ship. "Any darn fool can swing a ship round her anchor when she has two pro pellers," he said, “
