MY LORD DUKE,
We have the honour of handing your Grace, enclosed in this letter, a Memorial in reference to the frequent piracies of trade marks, of which the English Manufacturers have to complain in the various Colonies of the Empire. We are instructed respectfully to request your Grace's consideration of the subject of the Memorial, and that the requisite directions may be given in the department over which you preside, with a view to giving effect to the objects contemplated, should you be of opinion that this can properly be done.
The Duke of Newcastle, K.G., Colonial Office.

SHEWETH,
MEMORIAL of the undersigned Manufacturers of Goods, Wares, and Merchandize, using Trade Marks in the course of their manufacture, to distinguish and identify the articles manufactured by them.
That your Memorialists have for many years been in the habit of employing trade marks for the purpose of identifying the articles of their manufacture, and that these trade marks have become very widely known, not alone in the British dominions and the colonies, but in almost every country of the world, and are accepted as valuable and reliable proof of the genuineness of the manufacture as well as of the character and quality of the article to which such trade marks are attached.
That the articles of your Memorialist's manufacture have from the reputation acquired by your Memorialists for the goods they produce, attained such a reputation as to command a very much higher price than goods of the same kind manufactured by various other houses, many or most of them of inferior quality, and not identified by trade marks.
That the increased price which your Memorialist's commodities command has led to constant imitations and forgeries of their trade marks, but which have greatly been checked in the United Kingdom by the operation of recent legislation.
