The Prisoner He cannot assist in keeping whether the Prisoner was angry or not. He supposes he was angry both from what he did, and because he was struck and kicked. He saw Mr. Hopkins kick the Prisoner at the same moment he struck him a blow.
The Prisoner declines asking any questions and the witness retires.
John Francis sworn-States. I am a native of Macao - I was servant to Mr Hopkins and on board the Harlequin when my master was stabbed. My master died of that wound. He had no illness. I have seen Mr. Hopkins strike the Prisoner before - once or twice. The Prisoner remained quiet when he was struck. I know of no ill will that the Prisoner had towards Mr. Hopkins - I never heard of any such feeling.
