Defence Objection,

At this stage, Mr. Fraser sal he wished to tender the letter which had been sent to the master of the shop, but his friend objects ed.

Mr. Prentis: If the document enn be proved I have no objection. Mr. Fraser; It is a question of the admissibility of the document. I do not want to put it in, but am merely tendering it. I cannot prove it. Mr.

Prentia: Then I must strongly object.

His Worship: It seems to me the point is this. It can be given in evidence that the complainant did receive this letter. It may be admissible that the letter was re- colved, but that does not mean to say that the letter was written by the accused.

Mr. Fraser: I don't want it sald against me that I have tried to withhold anything. He received a letter and that is as far as I can низ I am not trying to put it in; I am merely tendering it.

His Worship agreed with Mr. Prentis, said that he had no iden as to how long the accused had bron in Hongkong.
