285
the report of the
Commission, on
ae
- count of the injustice
and hardship which
the present system
works up on
poorer
the
claires; but
your despatch does
not quite allude to it.
My predecessor ex
-pressed his several
approval of this and
of the other
recommenda
-tions of the
Commis-
-sion; and there
has been ample
time to prepare
whatever ordinance
is required for carry
-ing it out. The Chief
Justice suggests
that one of the Deputy
Registrars should also
be permanently Deputy Sheriff
to act with that promptness,
which Mr Plunket was
unable to act;
and that Mr
Plunket had
been appointed Sheriff and
this was not previously
known to the reader.
