MR. TAYLOR: I am entitled to have the answer as It was said. What did he say to your question ? INTERPRETER: He say No. He says Mann Quann asked him to go up and bring Nam Yuen and get some actors that belonged to the theatre—— MR. POWELL: We will not go into that. MR.TAYLOR: I object to any statement as to what anyone said, COURT: Oh yes. Q After that episode that he has just told us about, did anyone else come into the room ? MR TAYLOR: I object to that; he was asked if anyone came in, and he said No. MR POWELL: He is telling it in his own style, and he gives one answer which is ahead of the one I am getting at, MR. TAYLOR: My objection is being put forward at present. My learned friend asked a question Did anyone come into the room, and I took an objection on the ground it was a leading question, and your Honor ruled it was a proper question and ,not his answer, and my learned friend he asked him the question and "No" got his answer, and he now wants to cross-examine on that answer, and now the next question he is asking is Did anyone else come into the room. That is a false suggestion, and it is cross-examination on his own question, and he is not entitled to ask this question. MR POWELL: Of course you will understand my learned, friend is trying to suppress this evidence as to what did take place. I asked my witness a question, and then he begins to tell of another incident, Now, I am going to conduct this examination in my own way and I am not going to be stopped.
