payments were made.

The money was paid to A Pong up to the time that he was banished.

A Pong was banished the year before last. After he was banished I paid the money to Chu Tsai Kam... Chu Tsai Kam came and told me that No. 47's money might be paid to him. I believed Chu Tsai Kam because he and A Pong used to act for each other. When one was away the other collected and distributed the bribes. A Pong did not collect bribes for any one else, only for No. 47 and for Chu Tsai Kam's clients in Chu Tsai Kam's absence.

I wrote the list on which the entry referred to above appears (47 $135 Kan) myself. This list was seized on the 21st. of June, the day I was arrested. It is in the same condition and has not been altered since it was in my possession.

(Sa.) i.e. San Yin.

By Sergeant Bond: - I did make enquiries as to whether the bribes that I paid out were received by the parties. I asked the other gambling house in Cheung Hing Lane if they were paying the persons.

The only sign I had that Europeans received the money that I paid for them was that after the payments commenced they did not come to disturb the gambling house.
