been in a daze for five hours as a re- Bult

of the blow, according to his own story.

The weapon which stunned him was then produced--it was a slender plece of pine wood, a few ounces in weight.

It appeared that Cheung bad gone to the foreman

Asked if be could muke uny amends, You looked around the Court from the prisoner's dock, and sold that several relatives were present who would be able to raise the neces sary money Immediately. A number to of spectators got up and began sidle towards the exit, but were call- ed back by the interpreter who ex- plained the amends would only
