Prosecuting. Mr. T. Murphy, A.S.P., said the accused resigned last June from the Guards, since when nothing had been heard of him until he turned up again on the 10th of this month and asked to be re-instated. An inspection of his papers showed that he had been to Shanghai in the meantime - and, upon leaving that port, was furnished with a certificate which was valid only for a journey to India via Hongkong. Ho had broken the journey here.

When his application for re enllatment was refused and it was pointed out to him that there was another ship on the 22nd on which he could continue his trip home, Mewa Singh refused. The attitude he took up was "I am going to stay.. here: you can do what you like with me."

In reply to the charge, Mewa Slugh anid he was a sick man, and just now could not make the journey.
