ASHBURTON—FRIDAY.

(Before Heisiii Donald Williamson and Affred Harsbon, J.P's.) ALLMID LABGBNY AS A BAILEE. H. Gape-Williamson was charged on remand, with the larceny as a bailee of a cheque for £26 10s 6d, drawn In favor of one Edwin Wafckins by the Flemlngton Chseie Factory. Mr R. T. Laatbam, solicitor, appeared for accused, J. 0. N. Grlgg said he was Chairman . of tbe FlemlDgton Cheese Faotory. j\o - eased was Secretary of the Company, havtag been appointed on the 20;h of October 1887, when the new Company .. started. (This evidence was read from '..• (he minute book, which was put In.) The ,• , SsoietMj was a paid officer, and received £20 a year. The house of the school toaster at Flemington was the registered office of the Company. The plate produced was affixed to the house—either tbe door or the. gate. The cheque book produced !• the oheque book of the Company, and the.oonnterfoll shows a cheque drawn In favor of Edwin Watkins for £26 10s 6d and slgnod by witness, and W. Anderson, two directors, and H. O»pa« , 'Williamson, as Secretary. Stamp and seal ":. of the Faotory were affixed. Saw the '" cheque last at Mr Wm. Anderson's. The cheques were always left with the Secretary after they had been signed by lL the-direoten, The? were so left to be . ,„ called for at the office by the farmers, ■" who gave reoeipts for them. The cheque wh oroesed. Accused had no authority r. to us* any.of the "cheques except those given him In payment of his salary oc for petty cash. Watkins had not been --■■■ By Mr Leathern: No cne wbb eeting ea Secretary at present, The cheqoe was in the custody of aoouaed from the 17th January antil he left Ash botton, daring which time Watklne ■>* bad not applied for bis cheque. The tea '■'■ eon of this was that Watkins had a farm fiom witness* father on terms—one of - ftheee was that all produce of that farm or eesb the result of produce, must pass through the hands of John Grlgg, Wit aese wai not aware of these terms, but Watkins was, and bo did not call for the cheque, expecting that witness or some other agent of John Grlgg woulddo so. Ao eased received £20 per year fcom tbe date , la Ootober, 1887, whtob began the faotory year, until the end of tha factory year in 1889. There wae nothing owing to ao eased by the factory when he left Aah t WrtOD. The Company leased the factory 1b Ootober ( and there being little work for tSeeretaiy to do, theCompiny dispensed tbe Secretary's services. The Sacre tery, however, said he would be willing to act up to February without payment, •In which month he would be leaving. <: Had drawn a cheque of Watkins from tha Secretary, because Mr John- Grlgg told . him so. Could not say whether he gave _'*■ receipt or cot for tbe cheque. By ■ tbe Police: All prodaoe from Witklns'farm and all cash the result of prodnos sold from It, had to pass through John Grigg's hands—one third approxi mately going back to Watkins. That was the reason, although enknown to witness rat the time, why witness lifted the * aheque. He understood the cheque waß either for rent or for horses bought by .Watkins, Received the books by ooaoh :: one evening after Williamson left. Had ! asked for them previously, and Witllam ' eon promised to hand them over oa a certain date—about the time he expeoted to give up the actlag Saoretaryshlp—ln February, Firat missed the oheque In ejoestlon about Saturday, the Bth Inst. By Mr Leatham: (Minute read of meeting at wbloh Williamson undertook to tot as Seoretary free of cost). There is nothing said In tbe minute about the books bbing given op.

William Anderson, farmer at Fleming-

ton, paid he was a shar holder and a director In the Flemlngton Cheese, Butter, and Bacon Factory. The signature on "' the cheque produced was his, and was . attached to the cheque in witness 1 own bouse. It also bore Mr J. C. N. Grlgg'e signature, wbloh waa written lv witness's house also. Accused^ usually sent the cheques for signature in a large envelope; and on ibis occasion after the cheque bed

been signed by witness and Mr Grigg, ~ witness sent It beck to Mr Williamson by witness's own son. ' Alexander Ker, cashier at the D 1.0., Cbrißtohurcb, eald that on the 10th

. Instant the ohtque produced waa brought to him. Saw aooused, end noticed that , hie name was at the bottom of the cheque. Handed the proceeds over to accused. Tht obeqns was paid Into the National JSank : to the credit of the DJ.O.

By Mr Leatham: Knew tbe accused. He had dealt at the D.I 0, bot had not bad many tranaactloßS. Could not say >hotr long before It was that he saw r accused—l 2 months perhaps. It was, he thought, after banking hours when the chequa was brought Into the ahop, Conld not say that accused bought any goods, bot had no doubt about bis identity with

the person who brought the cheque. J. M. Tornbull, an effioer of the 'National Bank of New Zealand, Christ-

.church, was aoting as teller on the 11th 'lost. In the oonne of business received 'tta cheque produced. It oame from the I) J. 0., and was paid Into tbe credit of

tbe D.l.C.'s aooount. It was presented at ilia Bank of JSew Zsalend and paid- H. J. Luzford, an officer ot tha Bank Of New Zealand at Aahbatton, eald the Flemington Cheese, Butter and Bacon

Faotory, had an Recount at the Bank of

New Zealand. Tbe cheque prodnoed came to the Ashbnrton branch from CbrUtchurch.

 The Ghristchuroh branch of the bank had been paid the amount of the cheque, and the Faotory account hid been debited with it. Tbe cheque was received on the i3th Marob.

. G, J. Anderson, eon of Wm. Anderson, farmer, said be lived with bis fathei at Flemington, He remembered one day last January getting a large letter from his father. It was on ■ Friday—the 17tb. Gave the letter to Mr Williamson at his own house. There were faotory cheques in the envelope—Flemington Factory cheques. Saw the cheques, in cluding the one produced

By Mr Leatham : Knew It was the 17th January because It wae entered In the book at. home, and hadeeen the book tbat day. Only knew that there were cheques In the envelope became his father told. him. Eid not know of his onn knowledge that the cheque were there because he did not nee them put In, Could not ewear tbat the cheque in question was In the envelope. By the Police: Saw bis father writs out tha cheques, and saw tba cheques afterwards bat did not see them put In the envelope. Father told him they were In the envelope. The bunch having expressed themselves In reply to Mr Laatham, as satisfied that a prima fade case existed, the acoused was omtioned In the usual way and com mitted for trial at the Supreme Court In Ohrfstchurcb, Mr Leatham reserving bis defeoca.
