A. Yes.
Q. Where was he standing?

Mr Sercombe Smith : Was the paper presented to you at one or two o'clock on Saturday?
Mr Guterres : One o'clock.
Mr Hewett : And then it was presented by an old man?
Mr Guterres : Yes.
Mr Hewett : Your objection to make payment was that the man was an old man and you would not pay him because he had not a letter of identification from the captain or because Sai Yau was not there to speak to his identity?
Mr Guterres : Yes.
Mr Hewett : You are quite sure that there was only one man in the verandah and not two.
Mr Guterres : Yes.
Mr Hewett : And this man you refused to pay because you thought he was not the proper man?
Mr Guterres : Exactly.
Mr Hewett : And your only ground for doing so was that he was an old man?
Mr Guterres : Yes.
Mr Hewett (to witness): The second time you presented this paper, were you in company of your friend?
