I declined to do so. He then said lend the money to me, and I said I would do so. Nothing was said about interest, and Inspector O'Keefe a few days after handed me the Promissory Note, which I attach.
I have not received repayment of any part of the $500 or any interest in respect thereof, and I am informed that Li Cha Ming has left Hongkong.
In reply to the remainder of your letter I deny all the allegations or grounds therein mentioned and as regards G and H I have been tried at the Criminal Sessions in respect of these charges, and acquitted.
