1404. They were of better quality than those you got from Mouat?-Certainly they were.
1405. Do you get all the money you ask for?-I get what goods I require, and if I ask for money I will get it. At the settlement, if there is anything due to me I will get it; and if I don't have money for my rent, he will help me with it.
1406. But if you want all your balance in money, will you get it?- Yes. I got it last time. We are quite satisfied with Mr. Robertson according to the custom of the country.
1407. But are you satisfied with the custom of the country?-No; I don't agree with it.
1408. What do you want to be changed?-I am not prepared to say in the meantime.
1409. Do you want the price of your fish fixed in advance?-We would require that, I think, for some encouragement to us.
1410. Could you not get it fixed then, if you asked for it?-We have asked for it, but we have never got it yet.
1411. Who did you ask it from?-From the dealers we were fishing to, all along.
1412. But you have fished for no dealers except Mouat and Robertson?-No.
1413. Have you asked them to fix the price before?-Yes.
