Inquest that you will bring to His Excellency's notice the following story:
Yesterday attended the Police Court as prosecutor of The libelting for offences against Ordinance 8 of 1856 in having Partially built three houses in Greshurst Terrace in contravention of Sections 1 and 3 of Paragraph 11.
The Magistrates dismissed the case; nevertheless, it is fact that of the four parallel walls in the basement supporting the two stories, two only are 18 inches thick, the other two being 13½ inches - whereas all should be 18 inches.
It is also a fact that the floors of one house not separated from the floor of the next house by a space of 9 inches built up with brick or stone.
I have the honor to reiterate my request that I may be exonerated from summoning any other offenders.
I have the honor to be,
Sir, Your Obedient Servant,

Sir,
Treschoolfully solicit His Excellency's attention to my communications of the 24th May and the 4th June and to refer to the facts therein detailed as proofs that I have power to carry out Ordinance 8 of 1856 and that my attempts to induce the Magistrates to do so have proved abortive and I refer to my evidence to shew that on my second attempt I had to answer irrelevant questions prompted by the prurient curiosity of a member of the Court, in satisfying which much time was wasted.
Shall I ascertain what portions of the Ordinance the Magistrates are willing to carry out before summoning any other offenders?
I request permission to revert to the latter part of my letter of the 24th May regarding an attempt to extort money under false pretences by summoning me before the Supreme Court for carrying out Paragraph xxx of Ordinance 8 and to express my regret that my request for the punishment of the offender and the prevention of similar proceedings could not be entertained.
A judicious combination of the unscrupulous brokers by the subscriptions of many would be compelling my attendance nearly every day at some tribunal or another to secure impunity to offenders against the Ordinance at a very trifling expense. Such a combination I believe to exist, and in the case in which I was concerned before the Supreme Court yesterday to have made its first experiment.
