To Pay His Debts Another day later, defendant was alleged to have asked for another $200 saying that the Chief Officer had requested him to do so.
Com- plainant complied and received an other receipt from defendant, again purporting to have been signed by the Chief Officer.
Complainant heard no more from the defendant after this. He then wrote to the Chief Officer of the "Belrol" and, not receiving a reply, he began searching for the defend ant.
Complainant, his brother, and another man eventually located de- fendant in Kowloon City. They asked for the return of the money, but defendant was able to produce only $200. He said that he had spent the other $300 in payment of his debts.
