Q. The man you visited and the man you held the autopsy on was the same man ?

A. I may have seen him at other times; I can't say for certain.

Q. Were you asked to attend him at the instance of the Chinamen, or his master, guardian ?

A. Well, I believe I attended him at your request, Mr. Devitt.

Q. That's all.

Cross examination. (By MR. Gillan.)

A. Yes.

Q. How long since you saw this man first professionally ?

A. Since I saw him first professionally ?

Q. Yes?

A. Well, it was the time I made the diagnosis of consumption, approximately two months. As I say I may have seen him before professionally, but not that I recollect.

Q. But I mean when you visited him ?

A. Two months approximately, more or less.

Q. Where was he then ?
