Mr. d'Alminda went into the ques- tion of the object in having the paper printed in Canton instead of in Hongkong but witness replied that the arrangement with tho Shameen Printing Press was made by Mr. Raymond O'Shen before the paper was actually started and before witness went into partner- ship in the concern.

Witness could not suggest, if the accused was perfectly satisfied with the assignment, why he should have been so violent after the visit to the solicitor's offico.
