Q. You say a portion of this ex ' Labrador ' was taken into the

December. 
Mr. Justice BlaCKBURN : The last day was the 10th January. 
Mr. Field : Can you tell me when the last of that linseed 
went out of the mill ? — A. That I cannot tell. I can tell what 
was in the mill when the news came that Mr. Wells' cow died. 
I went to the mill to see. 
Q. How do you mean ? — A. What seed — I wanted to know. 
Q. Was any of that seed left then ? — A. Yes. 
Q. How much ? — A. I see I ordered some more Calcutta In 
on the 21st, so that that Calcutta would last until the 20th at the 
least. 
Q. I do not follow your reasoning? — A. I find that I ordered 
some more on the 21st February, so I must have been about run 
out. 
Q. That leads me to ask you, after you purchased ex 'Labrador,' 
and before the 16th February, did you buy any other linseed, 
either Black Sea or Calcutta ? — A. That had been bought before, 
but arrived during the time. 
Q. Of whom did you buy that ? — A. Baxter and Tall. 
Q. When did that arrive ? — On the 30th January — 395 qrs. 
from the ' D. M. Parke.' 
Q. Did you buy any other besides intermediately between 
those dates ? — A. There is some ex ' Escolta ' — 690 qrs. Black 
Sea — not Calcutta. 
Q. Any more besides ? — None. 
Q. What became of the linseeds that arrived by 4:hose ships. 
Are they all put together in one common warehouse ? — A. No, 
the 690 qrs., of which I have a sample, was especially good, and 
bought to make pure cake of. 
Mr. Justice Blackbubn : You say there was some ex the ' D. 
M. Parke ' arrived on the 30th January — did that go into your 
mill or not ? — A. I am giving the dates of the arrival at the 
mill. I thought that was what you required. 
Mr. Field : I should like to have the account of all that came 
into the mill between the arrival of the ' Labrador ' and the 16th
