Mr Dennys objected to the document being received.
The Judge saked to what object it was offered.
Col. Morby said he uffered it to prove how great a grievance he had found this matter of the desertion of seamen at this port to be. He had had to deal with the
certain people encouraging the men to desert. He wished to show the reality of the grievance and the aiuserity of his desire to remove it.
After some discussion, the evidence was
rejected by the Court.
