has the sanction of a stringent

penalty against craft moving

abortively on Gibraltar waters after

With regard to collisions

generally

between

British

Wang Manglers

and Merchant Office(r)s,

of the Gibraltar correspondence.

Colonial law unless British

jurisdiction

is

violated

is

dealt with

if the alleged offender is brought

contrary to the food law of the country into which

he is being brought.
