sake of identifying some evidence hereafter. I want to ask this 
witness what linseed and sesame, and in what proportions, are 
in the sample he gave to Mr. Knowles to send to Professor 
\ ()elcker ? — A. I saw the sesame-cake taken from the pile, ex 
• Result.' 
Mr. Justice Blackbukn : Just let us see for a moment what 
it was. There were a great many things asked of Professor 
Voelcker. 
Mr. Seymour : I asked Dr. Voelcker whether he had not 
made an analysis on July 24th for Mr. Knowles. 
Mr. Justice Blackburn : My note is " Last month, July 
24th, I received a sample from Mr. Knowles." 
Mr. Seymour : That is it. I only want to identify the seed 
and sesame in that sample, that is all. (To the Witness.) 
What sesame was it you sent and gave Air. Knowles ? — A. Some 
of the sesame that was in the cake Mr. Wells got. I saw it 
taken from the pile where it had been placed when it came from 
the ' Result.' I saw it taken to the machine and passed through, 
and I went with it into'the mill. 
Q. Then you can warrant it was the same ? — A. Yes. 
Q. Now as to the linseed ? — A. This is the linseed (producing 
a sample). The same linseed as that which the " Triangle 
Best " was made of 
Mr. Field : Which ?— ^. That " Triangle Best " that you 
asked me about — three-fourths Petersburg and one-fourth Cal- 
cutta, and 20 per cent, sesame was put in. This linseed con- 
tained the seeds which Dr. Voelcker said were, some of tliem, 
deleterious, and made out of rubbishing linseed. 
Q,. I understand you to say that the linseed you used in the 
cake which Mr. Wells got had three-fourths Calcutta to one of 
Black Sea ; the linseed you sent up to be analysed was three- 
fourths Petersburg and one Calcutta ? — A. Yes. 
Q. And therefore it was not so pure linseed as the other ? — 
A. It had rather more admixture. 
Mr. Field : Do I understand you to say you gave tliese 
samples to Mr. Knowles for the purpose of being sent to Dr. 
Voelcker?— I did on the 24th of July. 
Q. And did not communicate with Dr. Voelcker that it was 
for the purpose of this trial ? — A. I did not send it myself. 
Q. It was sent for the purpose of this trial ? — A. I knew from 
Dr. Voelcker's prejudice against the Hull crushers that I dare 
not send it to him direct. 
JOHN STEVENSON sworn : examined hj Mr. Cave. 
Q. Are you foreman in Mr. Kidd's mill? — A. Yes.
