"Yes, I'd had one drink out of a hottle of gin which I had obtained at the liquor store in Port Hope." "Did you know these two men with you" "No, I do not know their names, They were men working at Gooder- ham and Worts radio station, where 1 am digging a well" "Were they drunk:" "Two of them were the worse for liquor." "Were you quarrelling?" "No, the others were." "Did you say in the cafe, 'I'm runs ning this place'?™ "Yes, but I spoke to the boys at the table, not to Peter Lambros, the proprietor."
