text: To Satazuma. Many cases. The case of the murder of the Gaonbura came up again. There is no doubt that it was six men of Hebulimi whose names are known but there is no evidence at all. They were put on oath and two have died and I am told that these are the two who actually cut the man down. It is quite likely.
