truth, but there is a good deal more we want to know,

or rather we know, but we want you to tell us.

I dont know how much is all that.

We dont want to do you any harm, or any harm to the village. Wo want to protect the village, and we dont want the villagers to have a lot of trouble with the Inspectors about their pigs. If you go and tell us the truth, and find out everything about this, it is the same as if you were telling it to the Governor of Hongkong. Your wife can take enquiries, and you can easily find out about it, and you can come and tell us. Now you come back next "onday, and then by that time

you will be able to tell us everything. You will tell us who the ladies were, who subscribed, and who aollected the money, and who gave it to the Inspector.

I will ask my wife.

No, you need not ask your wife. You know everything

yourself.

Now, you have no reason to be afraid. If you tell us the truth, it will be alright. If not, you will go to gaol, and that willhe very unpleasant indeed. "e wont tell anybody that you have told us what has happened. You need not be afraid yourself.

witness cautioned.
