noon.
Continuing his cross-examination of Lam Pak-hing, Managing Part- ner of the firm, who is appearing as the complainant in the case, Mr. F. C. E. Rendall asked if it
was not a fact that pressure had to be brought to bear, by means of a solicitor's letter, to compel Lam to refund a deposit of $7,000 pút into the firm by Mow Chuen-man, a former Accountant.
Witness admitted that such a letter was seat, but be denied that it was the immediate cause of his returning the desposit. He said he had to go into the account books kept by Mow. Not until he had satisfied himself that everything was all right did he return the de- posit.
There had been some talk wit- ness said, of Mow becoming a part. ner, but that did not progress be- yond the stage of its being discussed as a mere possibility. He denied that Mow resigned because he was dissatisfied with the way in which the inner account books were being kept.
Mr. Rendall put it to witness that the real reason why witness had not paid the $7,000 when it was first asked for, was because witness did not then have the money; that in point of fact he was procrastinat ing with the view "to warding off the evil day."
.
Witness returned a denial to this, and to a further suggestion that certain sums which he received from money toun associations and other sources were accumulated for the eventual purpose of paying off this deposit.
The hearing was adjourned until this afternoon.
