− | man about some work, I don't know what street , it was lower down than Fisgard Street towards the foundry, coming back I came up Store Street and turned up Fisgard Street, the man I went to see lived 2 or 3 street below Fisgard Street, I saw the man . When the fight commenced there was no other Chinaman that I could see round. I think the Chinaman from the voice was the one called the other a son of a bitch. I saw no weapon except the stick at first, afterwards I saw the Chinaman with another stick, I heard W.Drake was for the defense and I went and told him what I knew of the case, Drake is the first I spoke to about it, I never spoke to any of the Chinamen about it either for the prosecution or for the defense. | + | man about some work, I don't know what street, it was lower down than Fisgard Street towards the foundry, coming back I came up Store Street and turned up Fisgard Street, the man I went to see lived 2 or 3 street below Fisgard Street, I saw the man.
