A time-sheet was produced for June 16th, the day the Russian claimed he was injured, and witness swore that on this day Kurakinch was credited with working ten hours. " "On June 16th did you hear of any accident?" asked Mr, Rose, "No, I heard of no accident." .. Witness added that his first inti- mation of the accident to the young Russian was about a month ago, when witness was on another job. It was his duty to send in reports of all accidents to 'men te headquarters inside of twenty-four hours. He had made no such report regarding anything occurring on June 16th. Later, witness told of finding Kura-, kinch ill in his bunk two days after' the accident and hag the doctor see him afterwards remoying him to Syd- ipaham and then to K\{ngston Mr. Farréll questhaned witness about how he could pick out June 16th and swear that 'the plaintiff worked ten hours on this date. Hn was able to swear to this on the fore- man's report. Regarding the condi- tion of the road, he would swear that on the day in question the track was not submerged in water.
