I went to defendant's house. I have been to his house a great many times. On one occasion I took silk to defendant's wife. I said to the magistrate that I gave a bottle of scent to defendant's wife, not to his daughter. The bank notes were my own.

There was no loss on changing the subsidiary commodity into bank notes - the shopkeeper who changed them was a friend of mine and did not charge me anything. I left the Police Force in order to visit my country, as I had not been home for 10 years.

I was not asked about it at the Police Court after I was arrested on a banishment warrant. I was not told about it. I know now that I am in custody under a banishment warrant. I did not get into trouble at the time when I left the force. I was reduced from No.1 grade to No.2 grade because I could not find a witness. The Inspector had the idea that I had got the witness out of the way.

Captain Gray told me something about the banishment warrant, but he did not show it to me. After I was arrested, I saw Mr. Hastings, the Solicitor. In the month of May last, I got samples of silk for defendant's wife. It was sometime in May that I was asked by her to get them. I got samples of silk.

When I got the samples, and when I brought them, there were no other ladies present. Nothing was ever said about a sample of silk like my jacket.

I have never got a sample of silk for any lady friend of defendant's wife. I bought blue silk many years ago.

I got the samples of silk from Tsui Fong in Jervois Street. About the same time, I ordered some clothing to be made at the same shop. I had the samples first before I got clothes. Before that, I had got samples of silk for the clothing. During this year, I have not got samples of silk from any other shop in Hong Kong. When I was given the samples of silk, it was in the bedroom on the first floor of defendant's house - it was not in the street that I was asked.
