No. 48 Sergeant since the beginning of the Gambling house. That
is 4 or 5 years ago. 1 first paid $1 to Yeung Fat for him. I
think I paid it up to the year before last. Then Hau Hang
a Detective came to say that it was too little. He said No. 42
thinks $1 a day too little and if you do not believe me I will
take you to the Kanno Temple to see him '(New 43). I believed
him and 1 consented to pay $2. Hau Hang told me to pay the
money to Tang Chung, Folice Sergeint 190; so I paid Tang Chung
$2 a day while gambling was going on. Tang Chung used to send
a man either A Ting or Ayi and I used to pay it to then. A Ting
used to live at No. 9 Circular Pathway. Ayi also lived there.
No. 9 Circular Fathway is Tang Chung's Club.
1 recognise the bundle of papers produced.
They are the daily accounts kept in connection with the gan-
bling house. The total amount of bribes paid by me at East
Street daily was entered by me in these daily account slips.
A balance of these daily accounts was struck daily and the
balance to debit or credit entered in the ledger.
The list of persons bribed was written
by me. The entry "New 43 $2" was written by me. This list and
the daily accounts and the books are in sans condition as they
were when in my possession in No. 8 Bast Street. They have not
been altered in any way.
These papers and books were in my pos-
session at No. 3 East Street the day they were seized by the
Captain Superintendent of Police.
This $2 was paid up to the 18th. day of
June, 1897. The last payment was made on that day.
No questions.
Hau Hang, R.C.137 states:- I returned from England yesterday. I left for England on the 1st. of May. I was on the Detective Staff before I went to England for 4
years
