76. Porter Dhlamini — A lirst-class workman. Plas been here 



two years. Was inclined to be saucy when he hrst 



came, but now all right. Was with Mr. Leech for lo 



years before coming here. 



Mr. Leech : Was with me lo years. Take him all through, 



was not a bad sort, but got cheeky one day and I fired him. 1 would 



take him back at any time, however. He was absent a couple of 



days — said he was sick. He came back on a Thursday, saying 



he was ready to work next day. I told him to stay away until 



Monday, lie replied, " But, boss, 1 want to work to-morrow." 



] replied, " Your business is to do as you are told. Yoetsak the 



h out of here!" I thought that would teach liim a lesson. He 



went to Greatrex, but I would give him a job whenever he wanted 

 one.

78. Abednego Ndhlovu — 1 find him sober, honest, and trust- 



worthy. He has had access to many hundreds of 

 poiuids' worth of goods, and has never betrayed the

 opportunity to advance himself.
