screenings ? — A. I Lave nothing to do with the screenings. I urn not in tlic 
chambers at all. I am in the mill to see that the proportion of the stiift' was 
equally divided when it came up from the roll. 
Q. If 1 understand rightly the screenings are put in the elevators, and put 
into the hoppers, and you do not see the stuff till it comes out ground, so that 
you do not know even about the screenings being put into the ordinary ? — A. 
That is right. 
Mr. Field : Then you are the gi'inder ? — A. No, I am the i)ressman. 
Q. That is the last stage ? — A. Yes. 
1 Q. First of all the elevator takes it into the ho])per, then it is ground, and 
f tfien it is pressed; how far is the pressor from the griuding-stones? — J. I 
work about a yard and a half off. 
Q. In the same building ? — A. Yes. 
Q. Where do you first get it in bags — when you first touch it ? — A. Yes, I 
do, when I first touch it. 
Q. You have to take the bags under the grinding-stones ? — A. Yes. 
y. Or to put it into the bags from under the grinding-stones ? — A. No ; it 
comes from underneath the stones — the grinder takes it from underneath the 
stones, and then the parer puts it into the kettle, draws it out of the kettle into 
the bags, and I put it into the press, 
r Mr. Justice Blackburn : That is your mechanical work ; but, if I under- 
stand you rightly, though you work as pressman, you have the overlook of 
the gi'inding ? — A. I am superintendent of the mill, and receive orders from the 
foreman. 
Q. Have you anything to do with the sesame-cake ? — A. I have to put it 
under the stones. 
Q. You do not see the sesame-cake until it is under the stones ? — A. I have 
to see it put under. 
V. Where does that come from ? — A. From the stones ; it is brought in in 
bags and emptied out. 
Q. Broken up '!—A. Yes. 
Who breaks it up ? — A. Two men at the machine — one they call Coggin, 
and the other they call Gates. 
Q. Where do they break it up ? — A. Just behind the wall. 
In a different room from yours ? — A. Yes ; we are parted by a nine-inch 
I wall. 
Q. In another room where the machine is ? — A. Yes. 
Q. It is broken up by the machine ? — A. Yes ; put into bags and brought 
into that room. 
Q. What do you call that ? — A. Into the mill and emptied out. 
What do you call peppering — what does it mean ? — A. I never heard it 
mentioned. 
Q. Or "Buflfum"? — A. I think I heard a slang word of that sort; it is 
frequently used by the men in the mill — it means this here Niger-cake and 
bran. 
Mr. Justice Blackburn : "This here" what? — A. This here sesame-cake 
and bran. 
Mr. Field : You never heard of " peppering," and you do not know what 
that means ? — A. Never. 
Q. Do not j'ou know this, that when you are making ordinary cake the 
linseed is not pressed so much as it is when the best is being made V — A. No ; 
the press is nipped up equally the same, because if we were to have an}' whole 
seed the foreman would directly come and call me everything. We Could not 
get the oil out of it. 
Q. But I suppose a man who bdught a cake and broke it and saw the 
linseed in it would think he had got a very good thing ? — A. I think he would, 
but it would be very much against the master.
