Have you ever given any present at my time of the year'

to any Inspector ?

*

I dont know which Inspector got any presents from us nothing given to him. I dont know. where the Inspectors live. I dont know anything about it.

Tell this man that we know perfectly well that money 83/5 was collected in the village, and that it was given to the Inspector, because he was making trouble about pigstyen. We know that, and we know that this man

knows all about it, and he probably subsoribed himself.

I did not subscribe any money. I dont know about the

subscriptions.

8316

Alright, we know perfectly well that you know what took place in the village. (To the Interpreter). Now, put

him on one side.

8317

I dont know whether there was any subscription, or not. Tell him that he had better tell the truth, or he will

suffer for it.

The Chairman :-

A.

I am telling the truth. I have not told any lies.

A.

8915

No, you may not perhaps deliberately have told untruths

but you have not told the truth ?

I have told the truth.
