3 A. No.
4
5 Q. But you were not instructed not to?
6 A. No.
7
8 Q. Did you get told afterwards that you should not have taken
9 the letters?
10 A. No.
11
12 Q. Nobody said anything to you about it?
13 A. No.
14
15 Q. You gave them to Kings?
16 A. Yes.
17
18 Q. I think on 13th September 1990, they were dated.
19
20 MR. MORRIS: It is mentioned in your report of
21 13th September 1990.

58 A. No.
