I had the honour of sitting at the Governor's table on the occasion in such a position that had there been anything in your manner or conduct which could have induced me to believe you to be intoxicated it could not have escaped my observation. I can only say that nothing of the kind was observed by me and I am ready at any time to stake my opinion of your conduct on that occasion as perfectly becoming the high station you hold in Society and entirely consistent with the ardent respect I have always had for your personal character.
You are at liberty to make any use you please of this note or to refer to me for any further information, which you may desire on this subject.
Believe me,
20th May 1856.
Very truly yours,
signed W. M. G. D'Almeida

The Chief Justice.
