Then who were the men when you got to the tram lines who
separated some going to the right and some going to the left.
Who were they?
It was this as I told the Court. I saw 6 or 7 men running
up the Square. Three Chinese were running on the pavement,
two ahead of the third one. I was on the road chasing 4
other men.
There were 7 or 8 men there altogether?
Yes. As soon as we got to Des Voeux Rd. and Wardley St. the
four men I chased, one went to the left and the three men
running on the pavement ran west and the man alone ran up
Wardley St.
Q.. What were you running for?

When heard cries, "Beize him", "stop him", so when people ran
I ran too.
