In the first place, I do not believe that the knock of his head against the wall had been mentioned.  In my folly, I did not know why we had to colour in the statements in this way, but in
honesty I must say to you that this was under the instructions of Col Goosen, who put the words, as in a manner of speaking, in our mouths with regard to what we had to say in the statements.
