The trial judge erred by excluding the five telexes solely because the recipient 'D. Wong' was not identified within the documents; extrinsic evidence (witness testimony) established identity and relevance, the procedural defects in the hearsay notice were inadvertent and did not cause prejudice, and therefore under Order 38 r.29(1) it was just to admit the telexes into evidence.
