He was told by Lewis, the man he was working with, to go to the front shop and borrow some bellows. John Morris lent him a pair and said they were old and so gave them to him. He gave his wife the money to buy the boilers and told her to go to Brown & Green’s for them. She brought them back, but did not say whether she had been to Brown & Green’s or not.
