The defendant duimed that he was instructed to take the goods to Singapore and "to get rid of it when the customs come on board."

Two of the defendants, Chu and Keung assaulted Cheung with a bowl and a stool, and, in 'attempt- ing to pacify the aggressors, Koo bimsel came forcibly in contact with the stool.

there was insumclent grounds for the charge of Intimi- dation, the third defendant was discharged from the court.

Mr. Sanderson then informed his Worship that since the n- timidation charges were dismiss- ed against all the defendants. he was prepared to admit the charge of common assault.

A MINOR AFFAIR The affair, he continued, was a very minor one, and there was nothing more than "a bloody nose and a broken head," which for- tunately, healed very quickly, and everyone connected" with the case appeared to be in perfectly good health and spirits,

Sympathy was felt for the see- ond defendant who came in late in the affray, and he merely, did so in the effort to rescue his friend, who, he thought, was in danger.

S

A fine of $50 was imposed on Chu and $20 on Keung, and both were bound over in the sum of $100 each to keep the peace for

2 year.

Mr. Schofeld commented at the conclusion that if the complainant was less sarcastic in the future. he would have less trouble for

himself.
