Hon. H. E. Pollock, K.C. barrister-at-law (instructed by Mr. G. K. Hall Bratton, solicitor), uppeared for the appellant. He said the first point he wished to direct the attention of the Court to was the form of action.

Plaintiffs claimed from the defendant the sum of $1,000 due on a "promissory note given-by-the defendant to the pixintiffs and dated the 31st May, 1903 Tho first point to be noted was that the plaintiffs in the Sammary actions who were now the respondents before their Lordships based their claim upon a document which they sileged to be a promissory note. I therefore of concee important to consider what was the exact document which was signed by the appellant, who was the defendant in the Summary actions, in order to see whether that doshment was or was not a promissory note, because if the -document signed by the appellant was not a promissory note then he submitted, judg mont should have been entored for the defendant in the actions, who WBS NOW the appellant. Upon the point. us to how these fivo decuments stood at the time

appellant affixed his signature to them, there was--as theto so often was where Chinese witnesses were concerned-s discrepancy of oridence. The appellant alleged that certain words were inserted in these promissory notes or in these documents-they did not admit they were promissory note--the purport of which when tren-lated into English was as follows:

It is distinctly agreed that the term is one month when repayment shall be made. This is proof. Dated 20th year of Kwang Hou, 5th moon. 51b day.”
