THIS DAY'S SHIPPING.

113 In cross-examination plaintiff said defendant did not corn-
112i
plain of his drinking and smoking. Never went to the
office drunk. Did not have his pipe until night. Defendant
himself took plaintiff to public-houses. Did not know if
anybody saw plaintiff sign the receipt for the £6. Is sure
no one saw the money paid. Would swear it was not.
Words had been added to the receipts since signed. Be-
lieved plaintiff wrote the receipt. It might have been
some other person. The only clerk defendant had was a
I _ I boy.

Mr. Prendergast said that was plaintiff s case.
For the defence defendant was called, and said that as
soon as plaintiff entered his service ho had causo to com-
plain of his dissolute habits. He brought in no orders, and
defendant informed him that ho must dispense with his
services. Plaintiff said, "Give mo my £2O and I'll go."
Witness said: it would not be convenient to pay the £2O in
cash, and plaintiff agreed to take an acceptance, and £6
wages due. Plaintiff was abusive, and witness-turned him
out of the office. The agreement was cancelled by consent.
Defendant was submitted to a most rigid cross-examina-

ion, and said that when he swore ho had turned the plain-

tiff out of his office he didn't mean it. He meant that the
business having been finished plaintiff left. A person
named Smith wrote the receipt on the agreement. Another
person named also Smith wrote the receipt for the wages.
They were two distinct Smiths. Everyword in tho documents
as they now stood was in when plaintiff signed. After wit-
ness had had tho £2O about a week, a friend of the plaintiff's
wrote to ask where it was deposited, and witness asked
plaintiff for written permission to use it in the business. It
was not meddled with until then. (Roars of laughter.)
Witness said he would give plaintiff a reference to enable
him to get another berth.
His Honour—How do you reconcile that with the fact
of his drinking and smoking ?
Defendant—l thought an indoor situation would suit him
better than an outdoor. (Roars of laughter.) Witness
got the L 6 to pay plaintiff from his bankers. (Laughter.)
Mr. Prendergast—l am instructed that both receipts were
written in a public-house.
A Mr. Nathan, who described himself as a furniture
dealer, was then eallod for defendant, and said he didn't
know much about the matter. Ho remembered being in the
Red Lion ono day and seeing papers being signed and money
pass from defendant.
His Honour inquired if that was the defendant's case,
and on being answered in the affirmative, said ho should
Impound all the documents put in. The case should have
pane elsewhere, and the plaintiff would have a verdict for
the full amount with costs. Had there been corroborative
testimony of plaintiff's evidence he should have taken the
usual steps, and did not believe one word of defendant's
evidence.—Order forthwith.

The Court was densely crowded and great feeling dis-
played, his Honour's severe remarks coming in for a
round• of applause, which was instantly checked.
