Lane, I recognised him. I asked him if he has a pass. He said

"I am an excise officer & do not require one". I was certain

that he was not an excise officer. I arrested him for being

abroad without light or pass.

I took him to the Central. He was in possession of $32 and some change, a watch & chain & 2 sovereigns attached as appendages. He bailed himself out. I went back to

my duty and he met me in Hollywood Road. He asked me to give

him a chance and to say nothing about the badge & license

that had been given to him by Cheng-On.

He may have some animosity against me, I do

not know.

I have a clear conscience as I have said

before that I have received no money.
