I inclose a copy of the judgment papers in which I have also marked the passages for His Excellency's comparison if he thinks necessary. The principal change is the omission of comments by both Judges upon a supposed assertion Paulus that the Commodore was the Pangwee and belonged to him. Their Honours had omitted to refer to the man's affidavit, which in fact did not contain any assertion of the kind; he claimed the Commodore but did not allude to the Pangwee.
The memory of His Honour the Chief Justice has also failed him where he refers to my argument. I urged that the Court, if uncertain as to the status of Annam should have inquired from the Government whether Great Britain recognises Annam, adding that the Government could have obtained the information from the Foreign Office if unable to supply it themselves, and I cited cases where the Judges in England had made inquiries at the Foreign Office.
