We have the honour to inform you
that we have been instructed by our clients to apply an order calling on you
to the Supreme Court for

some opium which was taken by the Captain
of
"the D.D. Marie", and handed by him to the German Consul, and by him confiscated.
The opium
was
subsequently sold and an order of the Court attached in his hands, and he was
prohibited
from parting with the money.
At the request of A. Mollendorff, then German Consul, the matter stood in
