16. Resummoned, to explain or retract his former statement, W. Grandpie was consequently obliged to confess that, on having his attention drawn to the letter of the 2nd December "Cast, from the Acting Colonial Secretary, he perceives that he is attached to the Registrar General's Department, second in rank, and subordinate to the Registrar General, and to cooperate generally in the services of that Department, when not employed in the discharge of peculiar duties.
77. There is also some uncontradicted Evidence of M. May to the effect, that M. Grandpie's bearing towards Mr. Caldwell's interests, at the time of Meah Chow Wong's arrest, led her into a serious disobedience of Orders, composed upon him as then Acting Assistant & Superintendent of Police; and such as to have nearly occasioned the Criminal's escape from arrest and from Justice, and that, but for W. May's compassion, Mr. Grandpre's punishment at the hands of the local Authorities must have ensued.
78. In all these points, however, the Report of the Commission is perfectly silent; that body contenting itself with the admission of W. Grandpie that he had been an exceptionable Witness.
79. The chief witnesses against Mr. Caldwell before the Commission, were myself, M. May, Ho Mr. Inglis, the Chief Magistrate, (the Honorable Davies J.P.), the Assistant Magistrate (M. Mitchell J.P.), In: Turner, the Town Solicitor, Mr. Anstey, the Acting Attorney General, Mr. Duncson, the Queen's Printer, Inspectors Lyons and Roberts, Mr. Tarrant, and the Clerks of the Land Office and Treasury (for the purpose merely of verifying the entries in the Land Register, and the Treasury receipts of Crown Rent, for the brothel property).
80. By every one of these witnesses, the statement that I had ever made, was fully proved against Mr. Caldwell: I am not answerable for the wording and arrangement.
