13,944. You only heard that Mr. Robertson became tacksman, and you don't remember who told you?-No.
13,945. Have you always fished for him since, and got the current price?-Yes.
13,946. Do you get your provisions at the shop at Vidlin?-Yes; and sometimes I get them from Mr. Robertson's shop in Lerwick, if I ask them there.
13,947. Do you keep an account at Lerwick also?-Yes, a small account.
13,948. Is it separate from the Vidlin account?-They are all brought together and settled for at the same time.
13,949. Do you get your goods cheaper when you come to Lerwick for them, than when you get them at Vidlin?-I cannot say, because I never had money to purchase them with.
13,950. You have always had to run an account?-Yes.
13,951. Had you a balance to get in cash at the end of last year?- No; I was in debt.
13,952. Have you been so for many years?-Yes.
13,953. Have you sometimes bought your goods at other shops?- Not often, because I did not have money to buy them with there.
