The memorial & naturalization under 72d. V. c.66 apply only to aliens who intend to reside in Great Britain and Ireland are not available here.

Mr. Talmash may either be content with naturalization in Hong Kong - which seems loudly necessary, after the general scramble for certificates passed there amongst aliens - or in England lay £500 for an Act of Parliament to meet his special case. Any further steps he should take with private advice.
