An enquiry into Mr. Moorsom's conduct was called for due to subsequent intelligence of negligence.

In an enquiry into her general conduct, you being an Official, were informed that he had neglected his duties or record.

Dr. R. Chardonnell does not enter into that enquiry.

2. The Council, whether it is better to have it dealt with or not, is a question of opinion.

I do deplore the active part (141) taken by Martonnelli in reference to Land from allegations made against Moorsom.

The strong language used against Moorsom must be hard to bear.

Before the Committee, it may be wondered what has led to this unsatisfactory state of things - your strong feeling against M. Moorsom's incompetence.

To such an extent would this have led to the brand of Moorsom being under suspension; still, at the same time, he has been told that he is in charge of his own department, provided it, we list Losing friends in testimonials with a view to his removal.

And he has been performing his duties elsewhere, accordingly.

Handed down.
