I felt no difficulty in acting on the At- torney General's advice in the base to which he refers, of the girl who had been brought to the London Mission House, tho daughter of A docessed Christian, bat daimed by another relative of doubtful character. This case is not similar. The allegation is made by the father that his child is forcibly detained by a man who admits ho had purchased her, and who the father alleges is about taking the child out
Colony for the
of selling purpose of her. Such is the allegation made by the father of the child in his frat petition of the 24th of May, and again repeated in hla petition of the 14th June. The father's evidence to that effect may or may not be trustworthy. But, if it should turn out to to comply with my instructions of the 19th Jane, will have incurred a grave ro sponsibility.
