consideration of this
They
are of opinion that much must depend
upon the circumstances connected
with the appointment and subsequent discharge of Mr Baxter, with which
They are not acquainted, for their Lordships could not justify
to Parliament the grant of a free passage home.
If the appointment
was made under any misapprehension from Mr Baxter, or in consequence of any suppression of facts by that gentleman, which misled
The Secretary of State in making
the appointment, then My Lords
would not feel justified in charging
any expense to the Public as a consequence
of such misrepresentation or suppression.
On the other hand if it shall
appear that the appointment was
made owing to the errors of others, in which Mr Baxter in no way participated or influenced, my
Lords would regard the case
as deserving of more consideration.
I am,
My Lords,
Your obedient Servant,
James Wilson
