the exact date or month, at about 0900 hours, or soon afterwards,

I drove my private car HK 2684 to Happy Valley to perform my duties

of checking surveillance agents there. I drove my car to Sing Wo

Road where I could not find a parking space. I turned to a side

street on my right, I have forgotten which street, parked my car

there, and performed my duties on foot. I forget which target

address I went to because at that time there were many addresses

under surveillance in that area. I met a party of surveillance

agents and afterwards used a telephone in a shop to inform Head-

quarters in College Road. I understand that my telephone message

would have been recorded at College Road and that I had to submit

a written report the following day. After I had done my duty I

walked back to my car. While I was walking along the side street, before reaching my car, Mr. X caught up with me from behind.

Mr. X saw me he said 'Good morning' and I returned his greeting.

Mr. X was the only one present at the scene. Mr. X did not stop

and he had no conversation with me apart from the greeting. He

walked before me and left. I drove my car away, but I do not now

remember where my next destination was.

When

On 16th November, 1961 Mr. Gordon showed me 4 photographs

and I stated I did not know the persons involved. The photographs

were produced one by one and Mr. Gordon asked me whether I knew

each one by name. At last Mr. Gordon asked me if I knew a man Mr.

X without producing his photograph. After some thought I asked him

whether the Mr. X referred to by him was a man who had been a member

of Y Department of the Hong Kong Government. Mr. Gordon did not give me a reply. Ì told him I knew only one Mr. X who was formerly connected

with the Y Department of the Hong Kong Government. At that stage

Mr. Gordon produced the photograph of Mr. X. I examined the photo-

graph for a few seconds and hesitatingly replied that the photograph

was probably the likeness of Mr. X. Mr. Gordon said that he could

recognize Mr. X from the photograph and asked me why it took me So long to identify Mr. X. I explained that although I knew of a Mr. X

I could not very well remember his likeness. I also said I knew

quite a number of members of the Y Department such as LEUNG Chi,

WONG Yiu and Mr. X bus that they were not well known to me. Mr •

Gordon asked me when did I last meet Mr. X. I said I met him before

the war and not after. In any case I have never had conversation

with Mr. X although he was well known as a member of the Y Department.

I was interviewed again by Mr. Gordon on 2nd December, 1961.

I stated that I now remember that approximately six months before I
