sgist now consequent upon the Judgment of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council and ask you to be good enough to let us know whether our Clients' Petition of Right may now be brought before the King for His Majesty's further consideration and if so whether that Petition should be amended by adding a Statement of the circumstances under which the Judicial Committee decided to refuse to grant leave to appeal, or whether we should in the first place again address the Right Honourable the Secretary of State for the Colonies upon the subject in its present position which we will gladly do it, in your opinion, you consider such a course desirable in our Clients' interest.

We would refer you to the following passage from the judgment of Chief Justice Carrington which shows that there are just complaints as to the way the enquiry was conducted by the Attorney General Before making his award:--

"It was very properly admitted by the Attorney General that if the Severner is indeed an arbitrator under the Ordinance, some things which are stated to have been done by the Acting Governor cannot be supported, and the Court will be justified in interfering in the exercise of its general jurisdiction over subordinate tribunals”.

We have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most Obedient Servants,

Trass & Taylor.

Charles S. Murdoch Esq.,

Assistant Under Secretary,

Home Office,

Whitehall.
