department have told us that their men were present on each occasion, and the boarding master was present on each occasion, and you always insisted on each man giving you his own account of wages. & then when vouched for by the head man you paid the man his balance of wages in accordance with the outside account.
On July 9th /06 there was some dispute among the men about some gambling dispute in your office and you were asked to take the amount off the man's balance, this you most absolutely refunded and stated to the men that they were paid in accordance with the amount stated on their account, and I quite agreed.
Regarding my personal attendant Cheok Yoo. I think I saw them outside your office when all three men went, I was present. I asked the headman if he did not appear with the others to present his wages account. It was entirely his own fault that he was not paid that day. Hardings told me Alvare was present at the paying off & I interviewed the man, who came to claim the balance of wages due him, and I consider you were quite justified in refusing to pay the wrong man, though he presented the wages account.
I think I have answered all your queries & given you dates in support of my assertions. I may also tell you, which no doubt you remember, that you decided some cases in my favour, this was twice against me on March 6th 24/06.
I have served under Messrs Harris & Dixon since 1882 & for the last 18 years have been made a considerable dealings with one of their steamers.
