File No FormB.S.M.2 STATSUENT OF LIAM DR ROISTE. CERTIFICATE BY THE DIRECTOR OF THE BUREAU. This statement by Liam de Roiste consists of 385 pages, signed on the last page by him. Owing to its bulk it has not been possible for the Bureau, with the appliances at its disposal. to bind it in one piece, and it has, therefore, for convenience in stitching, been separated into two sections, the first, consisting of pages 1-199, and the other, of pages 200-385, inclusive. The separation into two sections baa no other significance. The break between the two sections occurs in the middle of a sentence, the last words in section I, on page 199, being "should be", and the first in section II, on page 200, being "be forced". A certificate in these terms, signed by me as Director of the Bureau, is bound into each of the two parts. McDunphy DIRECTOR. (M. McDunphy) 27th November, 1957. STATIENT BY LIAM DE R0ISTE 2.
