on original oath recalled.

I stated in previous evidence that I wrote letter on 10/6.

That should be 10/7. When I stated 10/6 it was owing to typing

error in date. I produce copy of that letter, which I wrote.

Original order was brought to us by Mrs. Brewer. I remember

her bringing in the job. By looking at day book I say this

date was 21/6. If 21/6 date appears in day book as day on

which I received order I could not have sent proof Ex.H on

11/6. Exs.E & F are both our proofs. It would not have been

possible to have delivered 20 copies of proof on 11 or 12/6

if date in day book is correct. We might have delivered 20

copies similar to Ex.D without covers.

Day book is written up by whoever receives order. That

order was received by me and is in my writing. As a rule order

is written as soon as received, otherwise it might not be

written up at all. Order in question was for 200 copies. As

a rule production of draft would be order - we wouldn't reckon

we had an order unless we had a draft. We might have received

draft before date of order, but it is improbable. It is also

possible, on assumption that order was received before date

in day book, that type was set up befor that date.
