Well, if I had given money to the Inspectors, I would have spoken about 1' also long ago, hut the Inspectors make a row about the work, take down the materials and so on. It is not my materials. It is the master's. Tesides, the work is."What am I to do if you come and make a disturbance with me, if I am only a wageɛ man. Where have I got money to give you". They make trouble with me, and I take it down.

To you mean to say they come and ask you to give them money, and you wont give it to them •
They have not asked me for money, but if the work in
not right, they make a disturbance about it.
Why do you say that if you have no money, you dont 21/32
give it to them?
Well, they come and make a disturbance about the work,
and I think it is because they want money, but I cant
say whether it is or not.
Who are those men who make these disturbances ? Som
times several of the Inspectors.
