Dear Sir,
in itself be creating further and future trouble. If it be feasible a Gentleman of several years training who has held an appointment say in one of the Registrar's departments of the Queen's Bench, Probate, or Chancery Divisions of the High Court would be the more suitable man for the post and who could no doubt bring his experience to bear in indexing and protecting the Records of the Court such as Original Wills in a manner up to the present such Records have not received
and in also having the Books of the Registry wherein are recorded the daily Registry proceedings in an Action prepared so as to follow the procedure as far as possible of the Registries of the High Court in London and thus would enable at a glance to find how a particular action or matter stood
the
It is the system that has from Commencement prevailed in the Registry that has caused the friction from time to time between the present and former Registrars and the Court itself as Constituted by the Judges and were the various offices of the Registry prepared on the lines of a Registry of one of the branches of the High Court at home
no such friction would be likely to arise. but it is due to Mr. Kyshe to say that he has after hard work brought the Registry into a thoroughly efficient state and leaves it so.
I am afraid I am amplifying matters that when I commenced addressing you I had no intention of Enlarging upon - Apologizing if I have entered upon a matter in which I have no right to say anything.
I have the honour to be,
Hugh B. Cox Esq.
Assistant Under
