The story of a mistake in a cipher cablegram which led to the payment of £10,000 instead of £100 was told in an action brought before Mr. Justice Bray in the King's Beach Division by the Treasury against by Colonel Alexander Borissor, of Cromwell-road, Kensington, to re cover £5,900, being the balance of £9,900 alleged to have been paid by mistake. Judgment was given for the amount claimed, with costs.
Mr. H. D. Samuel, on behalf of the Treasury, explained that the Acting British Consul at Murmansk, Russia, telegraphed in cipher to the Foreign Office asking them to, credit Colonel Borissov with 400,000 roubles, which was to be changed into sterling at the rate of 40 roubles to the £. Later,†

a
Mr. Leslie R. Sherwood, a clerk in the Foreign Office, stated that Colonel Borissov offered to pay the balance if it were spread over 5 years. The offer was not accepted, as there was no guarantee.
Mr. Justice Bray, in giving judge ment, declined to find that Colonel Borissov bona fide believed that this £10,000 had been sent him from Russia. He must have known, there was some mistake about it.
