My Lord,
With reference to my despatch No.242 of
the 26th July, 1920, I have the honour to forward for transmission to the Central Clearing Office the returns of a further claim from this Colony in respect of debts due by German subjects.
The claimant in this case interviewed the Custodian of Enemy Property some weeks before the last day for filing claims and showed the documents to him. He wee given instructions as to the filing of his claim, but either from carelessness or forgetfulness took no steps until recently. The Central Clearing Office may, however, be prepared to accept the verbal notification as a sufficient preliminary step to the filing of the claim.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servant,
8. L. Statts
Governor, &c.
