Oral statement made by Hr. Howell before the Commities.
1st. November, 1909.
Mr. Howell states: **

Reco Rant 27 DEC 09,
My statement is what is set out in my letter
of the #0th. October, 1909. I produce the original agreement
dated the 24th. September, 1895, between myself and Mr. Tatam
(marked A). I produce the promissiory notes for $1,000 and
$500 both dated the 20th. September, 1895, in my favour signed
by John Tatam (marked B and C). I did go down to the Market for
one or two weeks at 4 a.m. as mentioned by Mr. Tatam. I did
call out the orders to facilitate him in his business. This
was done at his request until such time as he could get
assistance. I had nothing further to do with the Butchery from
that time up to the end of 1897. The statement by Tatam that the
business has been continued by me until recently in a modified
form, is not true. The following statement by Tatam is also
untrue:
"The said Howell has thereby cajoled,
"coerced and defrauded petitioner out of his said business,
*and has squeezed himself into same, and Howell has sought to
"destroy and has thus far succeeded in destroying, wrecking, or
*postponing up to date, the petitioner's just rights and honest "proprietary interest in his said business, and has illegally,
"and by trick and device appropriated same to his own purpose".
I also put in a letter dated the 6th. August, 1896, written by Tatam to me (marked D). I sent Tatam a letter on the 22nd. July, 1896, which contained an account showing that the Butchery owed me $2,162.91. This includes the $1,500 which I advanced. On the
This accounts being made up there was a loss of $1,453.46. covered a period ofrom 1st. October, 1895, to February, 1897. These accounts were made up by Mr. Baker who was an Accountant
