It was not the right thing, his Worship said, to give to a thief what he had stolen. If Inouye did | not want the money, Mr. Lindsell suggested that he allow it to be placed in the Court's poor box.

Inouye agreed to this course, and left the Court immediately after completing his evidence to rejoin his ship, which is due to sail to- [day.
