came to the conclusion that I had received fees in advance in the case of Nam Ly Sing, deceased, from a note in my handwriting as to receipt of payment of money in the file in that ca.Be and he further admitted that he would have come to the same conclusion if he had seen similar notes as to receipt of payment of money in other pauper cases, but that he did not remember seeing any previous to this note in Nam Ly Sing deceased, which is dated the

day of May, 1913.

In spite of the fact that he saw me receiving cash from pauper applicants and in spite of the fact that he often saw me in the Registry with half a dozen pauper people investigating and further more in spite of the fact that his suspicions had been aroused in lovember last as is alleged by him by a report from

Mr. Fletcher, the then Deputy Registrar and Appraiser that I was

receiving fees in advance, he never questioned me with regard to

it. When he saye that he subsequent to the report by Mr. Fletcher

spoke to me about it but that he does not remember what took place
