In continuation of my despatch (Confidential)
of December 19th, 1911 covering an application from Kr Justice Gompertz for the post of Attorney General in this
Colony I have the honour to forward a Minute in this connection written by Sir H. May, late Colonial Secretary,
in reply to a question from myself.
2.
With regard to the latter part of this
Minute, from all I have heard of Mr E.H. Sharpe I believe
that this Colony would be fortunate if he were selected
as Attorney General. Mr Sharpe called on me when I was
in London in 1910 and I am under the impression that he
would be willing to accept the appointment. The address
he gave me was I think 68 Pall Mall S.W.

I attach also a letter from ir 0.G.Alabaster
who has acted as Attorney General for the last nine months
during the absence on leave of Mr Rees-Davies together
with a letter which I caused to be written to him when
he ceased to act on the retum of the Attorney General.
Er Alabaster's tenure of the appointment has coincided
*
with a priod of extreme pressure in legislation, owing
in part to the many special Bills passed in connection
