At the time when the accused paid out the money he was on the point of making efforts to relieve Hip Tenk lang and so avert the loss of the bank as explained. In the light of thin fact, he might have used the money in question for partially making good the loss iccurred by the bank in the account with Hip Tong-fang. Evidence is wanting to prove that the accused deliberately deceived Mr. Adamson and fraudulently ob- tained the money from the bank by means of drafis drawn by, Yeh Shao-ling
