I remember on the 3rd August seeing the Sergeant hand-in-hand
+
with a girl at the entrance to the kitchen of a brothel. I do not know the number. In a street in Yaumati. About 20 men were
at the entrance of the brothel, and the Sergeant took a piece of
but firewood and was in the act of throwing it at the people, the girl took it from him. I saw the Sergeant enter the house. I do not know that he followed anyone. I saw him come out about. ten minutes later, and he dispersed the crown by waving his hand. They all went but one man whom the Sergeant kicked. He
I kicked him behind and the man fell. The Sergeant went away.
saw the man's thigh was bleeding. I then went away.
Crossexamined by Sergeant.
When the Sergeant first entered the house, I was standing at the entrance of the next house. I was standing at the right hand side of the crowd. I saw into the house because I came right in front. I have lived in Yaumati two months. I do not know the girl, and I do not know if she is a prostitute or not. I did not see any men in the house, Chinese or others. I did
not see anyone leave the house.

Crossexamined by me.
The girl caught hold of the Sergeant's hand. It was about 7 o'clock in the evening. It was dark, but there was a lamp in the entrance. The sergeant was about 15 paces (points to that
but distance) from me when he kicked the man. It was dark,
there were lamps about.
