The Judge and couno'l took the case most Class at Lloyd's A1, 19^4. seriously. How they would really have regarded it, had they known more about the Schooner Rig. maltor, must be left to the imagination of the reader. One thing is certain-they did not know what both of the Chinese suitorį. know and kept secret to themselves, never by hint or wink or uod attempting a dig closure. But two quiet and inoffensive Englishmen in Court had surprised tho secret; they could furnish no actual proof of their convictions, and, if they could, it was not their duty to interfere and make. ib public. And so they sat out the trial, and at it close departed, bewildered as much by the audacity of the Obinamen as by the marvellous way in which each party had kept faith with his opponent.
