sir,
I have the honour to transmit for your informa-
tion and consideration copies of a letter from the Chief Jus- tice, Sir John Carrington, and its enclosures relative to the proposed revision of the system of Civil procedure at present
obtaining in the Supreme Court.
You will observe from the minutes of the meet-
ing of the Legal Profession held on the 9th. instant that all
the members present were unanimously in favour of the Chief Justice undertaking the work of revision, but that Mr.J.J. Fran- cis, Q. C., who was not present at the meeting, is of an opposite
opinion for the reasons stated in his letter of the 9th, inst.
to Sir John Carrington, a copy of which I enclose for your con- sideration of the objections therein set forth.

If you approve of the Chief Justice undertaking
this work, I request that the Crown Agents may be authorised to incur a reasonable expenditure in connection with printing.
