no man can see the end. Therefore case H.T. very important from the Government point of view. I think myself that the moment Captain My made that seizure and had prima facie ground for thinking that the No. 12 mentioned in the list was the defendant, his plain duty was to have this case investigated fully before the Magistrate and if the Magistrate sent it forward, this course also. You will also bear in mind that the case is in the last degree important to the defendant. Of course it is his bounden duty to fight the case to the end. If this charge is proved he not only undergoes punishment, but he is a disgraced and ruined man for life, because he would be adjudged unworthy of office of trust and honour that might be within his reach. Therefore, as I have said, the case has taken a long time, but it is one of vast importance and I am glad to think that we have had a fair and impartial inquiry. I am glad to think that you have listened attentively to the evidence and to the addresses of counsel, and I am quite certain you are actuated by only one desire to do right in this matter according to your oaths between the Crown and the defendant. And I do trust that your intelligence will guide you to a right decision.
