2 MR. JUSTICE BELL: I have got that at 207F.
3
4 MR. RAMPTON: I think it is meant to be to be C.
5
6 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Well, there we are.
7
8 MR. RAMPTON: There is only one part or two parts of this note,
9 Ms. Steel, that I want to ask you about. Mrs Tiller did
10 not go to very many meetings, only I think about five in
11 all. This I think was her last one. In the middle of page
12 26 she writes this, it is the big paragraph in the middle
13 of the page:
14
15 "The fayre was then discussed and it seemed that most of
16 the arrangements had been made between the main members as
17 to what each one's responsibility was to be in the
18 organisation of the fayre and what their input would be on
19 the day of the fayre."
20
21 Then please go over the page, and here come these
22 strangers who we have seen before. The paragraph which
23 starts, "around 10 o'clock three young men wearing" and so
24 on and so forth. Then just read to yourself to the end of
25 that sentence ending in "the wrong building."
26 A. End of which sentence?
27
28 Q. Sorry. If you just read the first sentence of that part
29 "around 10 o'clock" to yourself and I want to ask you
30 about the next sentence?
31 A. Yes.

33 Q. She then writes:
34
35 "The immediate reaction of the main members of subject
36 group was of contained alarm and Dave, Helen, John and Paul
37 went into the next room."
38 A. Yes.
39
40 Q. She has got it right, has she not? Those were the main
41 members: Dave, Helen, John and Paul?
42 A. No. There were no main members, there were people who
43 attended regular meetings and there were people who had
44 been involved, off and on, for a long time.
45
46 MR. RAMPTON: Right. I want to move to something else.
47
48 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Well, is that the time to --
49
50 MR. RAMPTON: There is no further discussion to be had but, to
51 be quite frank, I am quite tired and I daresay Ms. Steel is
52 too, although she may not admit it.
53
54 MR. JUSTICE BELL: You have got some time to go anyway have
55 you?
56
57 MR. RAMPTON: My Lord, I should finish comfortably tomorrow
58 easily.

60 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Well, we will break off now and resume at
