I don't know whether you have heard this before, but Mr. Tsui told
me that he was quite unable to work that form of cash book. We had
difficulty I think you know, regarding persons who in spite of press
notices to the contrary, insisted upon sending cash by post or by
chit book along with thêêr applications. I have pointed that out
to you?
Yes.
And you let me therefore open a special kind of adfance account?
I must say I don't remember that.
If I produced the book you might remember?
Yes, but it is not in writing.
No, there is nothing in writing, but I think you designed the first
page yourself in pencil. On how many occasions would you say I have
spoken to you or written to you or written via your department about
the inadequacy of shroffs?
Quite a number of times.
The shroffs have not always been the same shroffs have they?
No, you occasionally had shroffs lent you by the Teasury while new
ones were trained.
What do you think of the lighting in my department?
I have never thought of it at all.

I would say it was at least as bright as the Treasury Office.
If we did away with artificial lighting would be be able to work
at all?
No.
You referred to a forged note in which you mention it would be
particularly obvious that it was forged. In fact certain printing
was in deep blue?
Yes.
