My Lord,

I have the honor to

forward to Your Lordship

the detailed Proceedings

of the Trial, held

in this Colony,

by the Chief Magistrate and seven of Her Majesty's

Chinese Subjects, charged with murder. This case is the first

of a serious nature that has occurred, since

the confirmation of the cession of this Island to the Crown of England by the exchange of

the Ratifications of the Treaty.

I am induced to submit it to Her Majesty's Government, not only because it establishes beyond

all future

The Right Honorable

Lord Stanley,
