Information ''alias'' “Foote.”] Mr. Sadleir did not know the place indicated by the informant, therefore his services as guide could not be relied upon.—''Vide'' memo to Chief Commissioner of Police in Mr. Nicolson's evidence. The informant was willing, and intended to come, and Mr. Nicolson telegraphed to Mr. Sadleir to bring him, which he did not do. Mr. O'Connor did not consider Mr. Sadleir's guidance sufficiently good under the circumstances.
