His Honour said he found that three dates had been set up by respondent, March 3, March 17 and March 28. He held that the medical evidence had established that March 28 was not the right date, while the evidence of appellant established the fact that he was elsewhere on March 3. In regard to March 17, His Honour said he was unable to accept it as established that intimacy occurred on that date.
