This is the only entry that

refers to you in all my books and papers.

This list was written a long time ago. I do

not know what year it was. It was not eight years ago. It was

written about two years ago. This is not the first list I wrote.

I cannot say how many years it takes for a paper like this to get

so torn and dirty that it has to be copied out afresh. This list

has to be taken out every day for use and reference. When a list

became quite full, I used to write out a new one. It would not

take five years to change a list. If the accounts were confused

and names effaced then I would write out a new list. It would not

take four years to render a change necessary. A list might be

changed once in a little over a year or once in a few months. I

said just now that none of my books or papers contained any entry

referring to you except this one list. This list is a copy.

Your

number was copied from a list like this one. I made no mistake in

copying your number. You are not the only European Constable who

received bribes. Then I made a copy I compared it with the original

The character pointed out by you is the figure 5 " That means

50 cents. I kept this list for my own memorandum.

You went to trouble my house. You patrolled

into Wa Lane yourself.

Formerly you did not patrol in a way to

frighten
