The Senior Inspector of a District goes out of his w

to come to your house and find out if you whitewashe certain property, and you had nothing to do wi' that property. Do you expect us to believe that, because it is not true? Now then, tell us what he went on to tali

to you about.

He said "that man said you had done it" and I said "it was not". He said "the work was not properly done".

That is all.

I asked you whether Senior Inspectors are in the habit 74:3

of going to contractors: houses, and complaining about

work being improperly done?

No, there is no such practice.

Then dont you think it was an unusual thing this week 7414

for a Senior Inspector to call at your house one evening, and not finding you at home, to call the next morning, to call your attention that certain houses were not properly whitewashed, and those houses had nothing to do with you. Dont you think he came about

something else ?

I was not there that day. He perhaps came to see me, because my house is being whitewashed. He may have come to see the whitewashing of my house. Then why did you say just now, that he came to see about the whitewashing of other peoples' housen ?

7415-

And those other peoples' houses, too. The time for the whitewashing is pretty well up.

Dont you know that the time for whitewashing is not up74/6

till next month?
