9410. I see here a special entry, 'By dressing, 3s. 9d?'-That is the same thing only differently expressed. That woman dresses any little worsted we may buy.
9411. Was that hosiery goods?-No; it was the worsted itself, the yarn.
9412. Do you buy the yarn ready made, or do you give the wool out to be spun?-We buy it ready spun and dress it, and send it south.
9413. You don't get it made up?-We do not.
9414. But the dressing here is paid for on the same principle of accounting which you adopt in your transactions with the fishermen?-Just in the same way.
9415. And you just settle for it at the end of the year?-Not at the end of the year; just whenever the woman likes.
9416. I see that this balance has been made at March 31, and another balance is made in April, and another in July?-Yes.
9417. Are the sales of fish transacted by you at Greenbank, or through the firm at Mossbank?-Through the firm at Mossbank entirely.
9418. Are you generally acquainted with the transactions in that department?-No. I may happen to know occasionally about some things; but I don't know particularly, as a general rule.
9419. Do you know the price at which the fish were sold last year?-I have an idea about what it was, but I could not say the exact figure.
