This took pined outfiido tho oOloo ; I was informod of tho salo to [It.ftilhby for £500 ; I did not up* provo of tho fialo, I did not oonsidor £500 a fair prioo for tho mine ; I got Cs Cd n Hcrip for korao of myohares nnd oonsidor tho property is worth 6s Od per scrip. I wna annoyed, and tho directors did not scent to onro to givo mo any informalion, so I opoko to aomo of tho shareholders ; I boliovo tho proporty was sold out and out, or I should not havo paid llailhby for what I bought in tho Victory Company; I havo road tho lcttor signed ' Charlos Clifford/ and consider its contents grossly libellous. His Worship— Do you oonaidor front fflQta within your own knowledge tint the Htatomonts eoninjncd in tho lottor, aro justified upon tlio ground of truth.

How can I know of nny n.liaro« holders that Davios, Mirfin, nnd Raithby hnvo dofrnudod P Tho Bench : Do you know why tho olaim was sold.

Tho Bench : Do you oonsidor that tlo salo of tho.mino to Raithby for £500 was a fair nnd honost transaction. Witness : I do not. I considor tho proporty was undersold. Tho Bench ; You said just now that tho proporty was sold out nnd out; was it a morn beneficial arrangomont P Witness : Not to my knowlodgo, but I thought it could havo boon, disposod of to bottov advantage By tho Bench : Mr Mirfin told mo thnt Raithby had got tho proporty at n nominal price, and I thought it paid him very well. Tho Bench : You said just now that you valued your sharos at fl» 0 ', aro thoro nny foots within your knowlodgo that could doprociato the shares to twopence.

F. Allen Broad—l am nocountant in. tho National Bank of Now Zoaland, Limited, Reofton. I rccoivod a flubpcona to produco certuiu documents. Tho bill I am summoned to produco has boon lakon out of tho Bankj I know of ihe existence of Riioh a bill for £500, it is ncooptod by llailhby. Rnithby rotirod tho bill by chpque,. Mr Hoid nskod tho > witness whother Mirfiu or Davics asfiiatcd to meet tho bill,

Mi 1 Moa.'i ol'jnctod to tho question. TTifi Worship suggested thai; the <l'i«s» tion should bo put as to whether .Kaithby wan assisted in meeting tho bill. Mr Mosm objected to tiu question being put in any way oxoopt " whether it wan mot by Hnithby." His Worship said tho word " conspiracy " waa very comprohonsivo nnd tho transnofcton in question was part of tho voe.gosto, and iWofor© allowed tho quos« tion, Examination oontinuod — I am not nwaro that llaithby was nasisted in mooting tho bill by oifchor Mirfin, Dnvios, or Guinness. Tho bill was in favor of tho Do/ianoo Company" Knithby would arvnngo with tlio Manager about the roliromont of the bill. Mr Itcid } Was llnithby's nocount in credit fit tho timo P Mr Moss objected. Mr Roid said if tho transition wns an honest one why uood tho olhor sido sock to hush up tho mattor, His Worship ruled that tho question could not bo put in iho form BngßOslpcl. Examination continued — I don't ro| member any sum of £95 which vyas chnrgod to Mirfin and Tilbrook'.s hanoi'tnt with roforonoo to tho ■Kill, I hnven't any. recollection, I dotftvjkaw of; any bucl| sum. ' Audrow Agnow Morttoith — I nm ma:ia»; got- of tho National Bnnk, llcofton, . ' Mr Moid asked vvhothcr tho witness know of a bill of £500 by Itnilliby to tho Dofianoo Company. Mr Moss objectorl, but was ovorrnlod. Examination continued— l know that fiuoh a bill existed. I havo reason to bo*| lievo it wns in tho bank. 1 never Raw tho bill. I was not tho manager at tho time.' It was retired before I took tho manage* monl, Mr Hold— Did cither Mirlin, Davies, or Kaithby assist to moot tho bill. Mr Moss objoolod. Thoßonoh— lf tho bill was paid by Jlaithby, and tho proceeds distributed as, a dividend amongst tho shareholders it does not matter who nssislod Kuithby to provido funds for tho bill. Mr lloid 1 No, but if wo can provo that tho claim was sold at ono eigh its value ; that a bill takon for tho purchase monoy, and if wo provodthat tho director of tho company provided funds to moot tho bill, tho ovidonco would jioto connect linithby, Mirfin nnd Davies in tho transaction. Tho Monch— Tho salo of Iho mino for £500, nnd tho mooting of tho bill nro two distinct mnttors. Mr lloid oontondod ihnt thoy woro ins eoparnblo. Somo further argument onsueil k and Mr Reid ooncludod by saying that tho Bench and himself wcro directly at issuo upon Iho point, but after Iho < remarks which had fallen from Inn Worship ho (Mr Ueid) would not urgo themaltor lurlhor, though sjlill maintaining his oontontion, ]i)xamination continued— l received n Bubpocona to produoo all tho buolta and jmporti in tho ensq I <lo not produoo thorn. Tbo transaction passed through oi^ht or ton books ; I can prodt'eo tho bank bill book if tho Uonoh orders it. Hift Worship said it would bo imposaiblo to. produce tho wholo of tho Hank boolui, Tho dofonco could require tho production of any particular book or books. Mr Moss objocted, MrEoid said ho only required tho books ooulniujng entries of tho bill in question, and not all tho bank books. His Worship— r.Dd<m. tho B.mlc lodger show llnithby's account ? Witness : Tho Bank lo.lgor would not show that. His Worship : Ts there any book in tho JJnnk that would show what paymonls woro made for that bill. Witness ! The lodger would show that, but would noli aJidw tho sources of tho monoy. 1 1 if) Worship : It ia allogod by tlio defonoo that tho wholo bill was a sham, nnd thoy want ovidenoo to show that fact. Mr lioid, would tho paynin alips not show who tho money onnio from. Witness : It would bo a tnattor of groat inoonvonienco for, )no to produce tho bank books and papora. Hio Worship ruled thai; all ovidenoo connorning tho firfanoial relations of tho bill was inadmissdblo, Mr Koid profestod thnt ovidonoo to filiow that tho dii'oolors providod monoy to moot tho bill was admissnblo, and os* sonlial to tho proof of Iho dofonoo. • His Worship said that fraud could bo inforrod from tho inndequnto prico of tho mino, but tho ovidonco relating to tho pnyment of tho bill was not rolovant. Louis Davioa— l wns mannger of Iho Dofianoo Company. I do not produce tho shavo register of tho Company. I havo not rocoivod any oubpoona. Mr IJoid— Havo you not recoived a subpeona to produco cortain books and dooumonts. Witness s No In roply to tho Bonoh Mr Lucna said tho subpoonns had boon nppliod for, but thoro had not yet boon timo to. issuo and sorvo thorn." Tho oano was ilion adjournod until tho following day. William M'Loan— l rocolloot a nalo of Dofianco shnroa nt my mart on tho llth of August last. Tho numbor put uj) by mo was 500. Thoy bolonged to ono party but I put thorn up in 100 a, with Iho option of tho lot. lam quito cortain of the duto. From a rcforeuQC to my sajo«

book and also to tho advertisement ; I ' fi in able to say thai I offered them on tho day named. I was allowed a spo-l deal of latitude, and to go between 5s and (5s an.l as much morons 1 could Ret, I should not hnvo lot tliom go for loss than 5s Thesollor was Mr Bayfoilti, niul ho snid ho wni» r propnrod to Ruocr n considerable loss in lotting thorn go at tho prico slatodj I think tbo highost gonuino offer was ss. tho shares wero thon withdrawn By Iho Court— l think tho nhnros woro bought in nt Ds ; I am certain that I got a genuino bid for ovor 4s for tho shores. I saw Mr Mirfin boforo I oflbrcd tho sorip Tho pluoo was crowded and I sold a groat number of sbnroa on that day ; I had just about conimonccd tho salo when I saw Mirfin in tho room. It was the largest ftharo sale I Imvo ovor hold in lloofton ; I oflbrod about 11,000 shares for salo in all. Mirfin handed mo up a small memorandrnn. JIo had groat difficulty in reaching mo ; I 3iiw him ontor and could soo that ho wanted to come to mo,, and watched him elbow his way to mo. Ho hold u memorandum in his hand and Rave it to mo, I road tho momo and destroyed it. Tho purport of tho memorandum was that 2000 flharos in tho Defiunco Company hud just boon sold in Dawson's Hall, for' I boliove, 3d by Mr Koevos, by public nuclion. I am quilo certain tho sum stulod was not more than 3d ; I was ho stunned whon I read tho memo* randum; thut I was in doubt as to whether I should oiler my lot of J)ofianco shares, it had a very sorious effect upon my mind as from my inatruotions from IkyfoiM, and my own knowledge, I was under tho belief that I could sell readily.and wi;s nfraid thorolbro, that I could not malco my commission on tho salo. Mr Hayfoild howovor, boing in tho room, I did offer thorn, I thought tho salo atDawson's wis a sham and I think I acquainted tho public of that sole. I certainly did not think that 3d wns a fair prico for the shnros, and am confi.lont that they would havo brought moro at auction. Shares woro thon saloablo at ss. I had a largo attondanco and a brisk salo. I thought at tho time that 53 was uo prico for tho shares. 1 havo road tho Inangatiua Times whilo in Dunedin, and having again just hoard tho libel roforrod to read, I don't know of my own knowlodgo that Mirfin, Duvios, nnd Kaithby, entered into a conspiracy to dofraud cortain shuro* holders in tho I >o(innco Company. Cross-osaminod by Mr Moss— My clerk mado memorandum of tho sale at my mi\rt on tho dato named. Hud I been offered over 5s for tho shares, I should havo lot them go. After (ho snlo, Mirfin asked mo if tho Defiance shares w< re hone fido Hold; I said it was not a hona fide fiiilo, but that it mado no difference to mo that I could get my commission. I moan by Iho word hona fido tint the sharos wcro not siold. Thoy word hona ■fido in my Irmds for salo up to ss. iUo-examined by Mr .Weid— Clifford has often told mo that Iho mino salo wns a swindle, ami I believe that ho thought tho Halo was a swindle, and Cully believes ir. Iho truth of whuG ho wrote. H« honafida bcliovca that tho salo at Dawson's was n sham, uiul I believo tho same- I coul I not account for Mirfin's anxiety to no quaint, mo with Iho result of tho sale at Dawson's. Tho salo at Dawson's took plaoo almost at tho sumo timo as my salo, and I thought that of itself was strange. William Lynch— l am a minor and was a shareholder in tho Defiance Company and was also a director of tho company. I hold 1000 shares ; 1 was working in the mine. 1 went to work about Sop tembcr 1875, and was there on nnd off till August 1870. I knocked off in oonsoquvycoof tho diflluulty of i;ol|ing tho nails in. Arranged with Davies, tho manager of tho company that I should lenoek off for a month, to soo if wo could got tho back culls in. About ton daya aflerDnvios sent a man to mo demanding tho koys of Iho hut. I gavo him tho koys but told him that ho would havo to go to work at his own risk, as thoro was no monoy to pay him. Ho said ho had mado arrangements with Dnvios nnd would go to work. Did not soo Dnyio* for four or fivo wpoks after, and ho was rftlho'r cross with mo* Wo had a, falling out bocauso I had boon to- tho bant to onqtiiro about tho company's account ; I found out Hint two bad cheques had boon paid in, ono by Archer, and tho olhor by Mirfin. Ho said I had no right to go to tho bunk. I said thab as n diroctor of tho company, it was my duty to mako tho enquiries. Saw him again about Iho 18th INovombor, 1870, nnd nsked him to sell 500 shares for mo, as I was going to Boatman's, and tola 1 him that ho could soil them for tho calls duo on thorn, and told him I was going to work in tho Hopeful nnd to let mo know if ho could sell them, and I would know what to do. I said I intended to Icocp 500 shares, an I had paid so much into tho mino. I onmo to Koofton about January following, and wont to Davio's olork (Tourrottos) about my shnros ; I hoard a rumour that my sharos had boen. sold ; I left iho Clerk and wont to Davioa nnd nsked him if all my sharos woro sold, and ho said thoy woro, all ot thorn. Ho snid thoy had boon sold for calls ; I folt surprised at that ; I had rocoivod no nolico whatever to pay calls ; I think I told him that it was unjust to soil my shares for tho calls when many other shareholders owod four or fivo calls. £8 Gs 8d was nil that wns duo on my shares at tho timo they wcro nllegcd to to sold 3, 1 did not

consider the snlo of my sh;ir»\s was a legal, ono ; I bclicvo tbnt liad f not, gone lo the JJiiulf and mado inquiries about tho Company's allairs my shares would novor Imvo boon sold. They woro sold becnuso of tbo row with Dnyins; uftor «oinjx to tbo Bank I novcr nltcndod nnothor mcotiiu? iiooanso 1 could sno that it was no good ; tho lost mooting I attended was I think Jiino, 1876 ; I was never informed of tbo salo of tho property by tho Company ; I could not say what tho vnluo of my shares was nt tho tinio I wont to Bont» mon's 09 thoro wus n jiood dcnl of davk work goiDR on nt tho timo ; could havo pot 6s 6d for tbo shnros last August; ; I dont think I was n director »t tho timo my shnros wcro sold ; I did not ask for a snio note of my shares, nor did not rr« coivoono; novor fiofc n bnlnnco ; boni-d that tho shares brought £17 odd j novor got a notico from the compnuy statnm th»t my shnres would bo sold on a cort«ii> dnto unless rodoomod. Tho shnrel\oldcrs who owed more tlmn I did when I was a director wero Archer; Mirfin, Wilson, nnd mnny others. Tins I know of my own knowledge a* n dircotor of tho company ; I consider tho snlo of thn mino for £»O) was n very dishonest ono. At tho timo tlio propo'rty wns sold 1 had tnlcen pro* ooedinßS to rocovor my shares ; I think my case wns oillcd on for henriug in tho l)istrict Court, Keefton, on tho dny of Iho snle of thn mine. Tho snlo was of" foctod (o dofrruitl us out ot oviv »>bnroo ; I flnnnot soo nny othor motive for tbo sale.

Louis Dnvios— l received a notice to pvnfbico n transfer to John Dnwsm of 20(X) slinros ; T produce tbo transfer.
