Witness Cross-Examined In Claim Against Restaurant
Mr D. Chia, partner of General Articrafts, said in cross-examination this morning that he had made no promise to supply the best materials and provide the best workmanship in carrying out the interior decoration of the Peking Restaurant.
He declared that he did not give that assurance before the contract was signed or afterwards.
