The noteworthy point about this case to me is that Mr Hennessy decided in a point against Sir B. Braddell, he insisted on full restitution of the opium by the Chinese authorities to its owner.

The Attorney General refused to restore and determined to strike a blow at smuggling which appears to be the distinction between British and Chinese Waters.

He consistently, and at the latter point, wisely (5489). See also 9345 × 9732-
