Sub-Inspector O'Connor, of the S. C. A., said the girl had been sent to school for a week last year, but was then taken away from the school. He believed the girl was beaten at that time, and the defendant was afraid to send her to school owing to the marks caused. The girl had also one or two teeth broken, alleged to have been done by the defendant. The girl's story was that she had been sold to the defendant in Shanghai, and had been brought down to Hongkong shortly after. She slept on the floor by the defen- dant's bed.
