1454. Not provisions?-No; not provisions.
1455. Is there any tea?-No.
1456. You go to the shop yourself for your goods, and hand your line in payment for them?-Yes.
1457. Could you the same goods in Fetlar?-I could get the goods in Fetlar if I had money to give for them; but I could not get money for shawls or veils in Fetlar.
1458. But if you had the money, could you get the goods as good and cheap in Fetlar as in Lerwick?-Yes; they are very cheap in Fetlar. Messrs. Hay Co. have a shop there.
1459. And you think you could get your goods as good and cheap there as you can in Lerwick?-Yes.
1460. And of course you would not have to carry them back with you?-No.
1461. Are there many people in Fetlar who knit the same way as you do, and come in to Lerwick to sell their shawls?-Yes; there are a good many people who knit in the same way that I do, and come down here with their shawls, because there is no other way of disposing of them.
1462. Do they get their payment in the same way?-So far as I know, they do.
