SERIOUS CHARGE

The serious charge of having committed rope on LI Tim Ho, a 17-year-old mui-tsal in his employ, on August 11, last; at 379, Hennessy Road, was preferred against Tsot Chi San, a conductor employed by the Tramway Company, at Central Magistracy yesterday.

Mr. W. Schofield heard the case and Mr. Hin Shing. Lo, instructed by Mr. F. E. Nash, appeard for the

defence and asked for ball,

Detective Sergeant D. Fitches opposed bail and asked for + week's formal remand. The de- fendant, he stated, was originally summoned in connection with falling to report the transfer of two muf-tsals, one of whom was the subject of the charge. The hearing of the summons had been fixed for October 30.

Mr. Lo explained that the com- plainant had run away from the cufendant's employ for about two weeks. A report had then been made to the police. After two weeks she was brought back by the SIC.A., and the accusation against the defendant was then alleged, She had been in the employ of the defendant for the last seven or eight years.

Sergeant Fitches agreed that the girl had run away on Septem- ber 25, and that it was because of the offence committed by the de- fendant. It was quite significant that the defendant, when he found the girl had run away, removed from his address the following day, and only reported the matter on the third day.

Mr. Schofield said he would not fx bail until the police enquiries had been completed, and formally remanded défendent for one week.

FORGED NOTES

Wynne-Jones on 1. remanded charge with having assaul.ed a 12 year old giri, Fan Lin Tal, alias Sum Fong on various dates be- tween October 7 and 17. Mr. M. A. da Silva who appeared for de- fendant, entered a plea of guilly but stated that his client was forced to administr chastisement as the girl had been

very, ob- stinaté.

In giving the foes of the case, Sub-Inspector T. O'Connor, stated that on October 17 an anonymous letter was received by the Secre-- tarlas for Chinese Affairs alleging that the girl was a "mul-isar" in the employ of the defendant and was being ill-treated. A lady in- specior was sent out the next day and it was found that the girl was not a "mu-tsar" but a “sum po tsai" Le young girl sold for, mar- rlage.

When the girl was examined she

was found to bear various bruises

on different parts of her body. Defendant was then sent. to the Mongkok Police, Station, where she was charged.

Defendant had a son 17 years or age and a daughter 2 years of age, living at the same address.

Mr. Silva explained that prior to the 7th, his client visited the coun ry and left the girl in charge of the house in her absence, with Instructions to keep the place clean and tidy. When defendant re- turned some days later she found; that the house was in a most un- clean and untidy condition.

She ordered the chlid to straigh- ten things out, but the latter ob- stinately refused to do as she was

fold, so defendant chastised her: In spite of this however, the girl again refused to clean the house when asked to do sa, and de- fendan again beat her. It was admitted that defendant might have los her temper, but the chlid nevertheless had been very obarate.
