"I was was drunk as drunk could be and had disgusted the company with my words to that effect (see Captain Watkins's letter - enclosure 3)
On the 16th Mr Austey again alluded to the dinner at the Governor's, stating to Mr Leslie that, "the Surgeon was intoxicated and behaved in such a manner as to render it painfully apparent." (see enclosure 10)
And on the 17th of the same month, at a dinner given by Bowrajee, Mr Austey for the third time stated that I was drunk at the Governor's house, in order to prevent my further exposing myself, and added "that it was evident I was reduced to move so early from the table after dinner" (see Captain Watkins's letter - enclosure 5)
For the falsehood of those statements, I have only to refer you to Sir John Bowring's letter of the 23rd (enclosure 7) and to those of other gentlemen present (see enclosure 11).
With the exception of the Commissariat Officer, Mr Williams, who for the reason stated in his letter (enclosure 11) had no opportunity of forming an opinion, and of Captain Rotten R.A. who declines giving a private opinion, I leave the determination to every gentleman at the table.
