Referring to the second paragraph
of my Despatch No. 128 of the 13th. May, I have the honour
to inform you that the time allowed to the Appellant in the
Cheung Sha Wan Case to complete the prescribed security to
prosecute the appeal to the Privy Council and pay the costs
thereof expired upon the 15th. instant and on the applica-
-tion of the Crown the Full Court dismissed the Petition
for leave to appeal on the 27th. instant.
2.
The Decree of the 31st. March last
embodied in the Judgments forwarded to you in my Despatch
No. 166 of the 28th. ultimo is therefore absolute. By that
Decree the Full Court, confirming the Judgment of the Land
Court, disallowed the claim of Tang Tsz U to the foreshore
and waste land at Cheung Sha Wan Bay known as claim C.A.
Survey District No. 4, and the title of the Crown is now
undisputed.
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
ALFRED LYTTELTON, K.C., M.P.,
