To then sufficiency, and had been in existence when the sick seaman Alifalla I have a Alas fruct on load of the "Luzon", doubt that he would have been sent there with some necessary comfort, and under such circumstances and surveillance.

Would have prevented his being so inhumanly landed with inadequate decking in inclement weather, which on the part of the Master of the "Luzon" was inhumanity. The immediate cause of his death according to the weight of medical testimony of the Inquest was the action of the Colonial Authorities, not that of the "Luzon".

On the contrary, whatever blame might be attached to the "Luzon" - the getting up Departments was greater. The organization of the latter was clearly defective, but he would have at once secured all needful comfort for Alifalla had he not been so recklessly turned away from the "Luzon", he would probably have reached England alive.

All the circumstances are fully before Your Lordship and the Board of Trade, I felt it my duty to refer Your Lordship's Despatch of the 14th December last to the Colonial Secretary, where report on the case of the sick seaman sent on board the Western Chief and the "Luzon",
