I want to ask just a couple of questions, Doctor Pearce. Since you were here, we have bean examining Inspector Frith, Inspector Frith applied to be moved from one District to another, and in doing se, he said, he made

no application in writing, but he cane personally to

see you, and that you made the necessary order for his

removal from one District to another.

It was a mutual transfer, Dr Pearce.

A mutual transfer, between Inspector F. Ward and

himself. I want to know if that is so ?

Do you remember anything about the transfer 1
