? Send a copy of our telegram in reply to F.O. on 24749 of ... and ? Add that with concurrence of Chamberlain we propose to refer to the Law Officers the question whether under the circumstances the Tartar was not a public vessel of the U.S. and so not amenable to the local law of Hongkong.
I have no doubt that she was not, but it will be better to get the opinion of the L.O.
