Dr. Clement Le have Foster, who sod he was Inspector
of Hien for dd. district. On the gad of January he sent
defendant an abstract of the Act a form for the r.dorn.
and a circular. He wrote to defendant on the 7th of
February tolling bins he was surprised that he hail not
received the return and he had reported the matter to the
Home offliss with the view of taking legal proceeding.
',millet him, lie then had a letter from defendant dated
February 19th, asking for • form for the return, lie sent
defendant a form on the 21st, and on the Bth of Much
defendant wrote again asking for another form, as the
previous one had been mislaid. 11 •feridatit had not

the return on or before tie lit of February. aol arrigis,

statistics for the year. He inspected the mine in

fortnight ago he made another inspection, and it was no
longer a mine.
Reuben Whiterow, said he was foreman over the Church
Knowle mine, ant was employed by Mr. Harrison. He
went over the mine with Dr. Foster. At some periods
during twit year men were working undergrYuad there.
Mr. Budge said the case would have been brought
forward earlier, hut Dr. Foster had been undergoing a
surgical operation in London.
Mr. Harrison's manager said it was through inadventnre
that the return was not made earlier.
Mr. Budge said Dr. Foster did not wish to press for a
heavy penalty, but these returns must be sent in at the
proper time, and that was the only reason the Secretary
of State took these Proceed's..
The defendant's manager said the mine was formerly an
open quarry. The working underground was an sepal.

slightest doubt hut that in the Snit place he did not send
In • return at all, and that he afterwards sent in two in.
