The Interpreter: The heading is "Inspector Amy, 3rd moon 28th day taken borrowed money 7 taels 2" then "repaid $5" then there are two words which he says mean that you have to refer down to another item in the body of the book which reads "deducting what has been received there is due 3 taels 6".
Mr. May: That is equal to $5.
His Excellency: That was in April, 1906?

Mr. May: Ask him whether that receipt which Inspector Amy has produced is not an extract from another part of that book?
Yes, this account is carried over into this from another part of the book. Here it is (indicates).

Yes, to the poultry and pigeons.
