His Worship referred to the wording of the charge, which that Leung Ngau, Lo Ting and Tang Sum "unlawfully did threaten Wong Sing, Wan So, Wan Ngan, Ng Yce and Suen Sam with an illegal act, to wit, to deprive the anid persons of their livelihood as masons if they failed to do an act which they were not legally bound to do, to wit, to become members of the Kwong Yee Tong Guild....". and held that every word of that charge was proved. He was satia- fed that the accused unlawfully did threaten the masons, by taking away their tools and making their intention clear that they would return them only if and when they joined their guild.
