in charge of the District during that time.

I remember one day out with you when we walk -

ed from Lower Lascar Row to Cheung Hing Street. There was a

rush of gamblers out of a house, and the door was bolted

against us. The gamblers ran into a family house in Cheung

Hing Street. There was a cry of save life. I got over the

roof & opended the door for you. The gambling was carried

on in the back part of a house in Lower Lascar Row. If these

men had paid you I don't know why they should run away.

I have never seen any one give you money. I

have never heard any one say that they have given you money,

I have never reported either of these houses to you as gam-

bling houses.

I do not remember telling you that Tse Leung

received bribes to pay Indian Constables & that he received

40 cents and kept back part of it.

I have not heard that Tse Leung paid money

to the Indian Constables. I know Tse Leung. We are both Tung

Koon men. I ran away from the Police. My security asked me to

come back.

My wife has not used her influence to get me

back. My wife or friends have not given Mr. Francis's boy

$100 to get me back into the Police. I came back on the 14th,

of the Chinese 7th.moon.

land on the 19th. instant. I have been on the Detective Staff
