I was fined several tens of dollars for conorate this

year, which was not done properly. $50 I am not

working now.

How often have you given Sanitary Board Inspectors 8689

presents, so as to pass your work ?

8690

I have not gi en presents. I have not got much business

Have you never sent any presents to any Sanitary

Inspectors ?

No,

I have not much business. You look at my book, and

you will not.

Is it worth while wasting time over this man now ? 8691 Lei

You will be good enough to tell this man, Mr Ball, that

we dont believe anything he has told us. He is trying

•

to evade the questions, and trying to appear stupid,

and to pretend he does not know.

Well, I have only done these 18 houses.

8692

Alright, well I am going through your books, and later'

on, I will send for you again, and you must tell what

you have been doing. You must tell the truth, or it

will be very serious for you.

Why should I cheat, or not tell the truth ?

Be very careful. Go away and think over what I have said

And I will send for you, when I want you.

Witness cautioned.
