5321. Did you fish for him after that?-Yes.
5322. Were you bound to do so?-My son would not fish, but I was still upon the land, and I just fished for him.
5323. Did you get your provisions at Mouat's store at Sandwick?-Yes; I could do nothing else than go to him, and he has brought me to poverty.
5324. Did you get your meal and other things there?-Yes; I had to go there for them all.
5325. Did you run an account with him, and settle it when you settled for your fish at the end of the year?-Yes.
5326. Had you ever a balance to get in money?-I had money in his hands when I was put out of the land.
5327. Up till the time when Mouat left the place, were you getting money from him year by year?-I was just getting out of the shop what I required, for I never got into debt to him.
5328. If anything was over did you get it in money [Page 132] at the settlement?-No; but the worst thing he did was he last time when he was going about looking for cattle which he could pick out and put away.
5329. Did he pick out any from you?-Yes. He took the last one I had, and he promised to give me a cow for it next week, but it has never come yet.
5330. Did you get any meal at Mouat's store?-The greater part of it was fit for nothing but the pigs.
