On April 17 he gave his foki in- structions to

go to the Kwong Tung Drug Store and buy some of this medicine for him. The medi-" time was called "Po Chi Sul." The foki bought the medicine as or- dered, in consequence of which the shop was raided and 548 bottles were found there.

On the way to the house the Inspector was met by the eldest girl who also said that she had been struck with a broom. This girl was presented in the country five or six years ago for the stim of $125 Canton currency.

The youngest girl said, that she was presented some two or three years ago by her mother in the country as a security for the sum of $100 Canton currency. Her job was. packing tea leaves and cleaning spitoons.

The defendant has two sons, four daughters and · husband, who was the master of a tea shop in Queen's Road West.

Mr. Zimmern pleaded, that the defendant knew nothing of" the mui tsat ordinance. The first giri was not relaced to the defendant but the other two were. distant relatives of hers. That was not the time or place to speculate as to what would have been the girls" positions had they not been When taken by the defendant. the master was not at home they all hid their meals together. „

Counsel asked that a lenient View be taken of the case and the infliction of a nominal fine would bring the defendant to realise that there is a mui tset ordinance. The defendant denied that any one of the girls had ever been struck by any member of her family.

The defendant was fined $200- in the case of the first girl and

$150 each in the case of the other
