of the Consul for the Secretary of State, the form is based on the form of Letters of Request in use at home. The form in the "White Book", as recently considered in this Colony, is the one we should issue if it were necessary in the case of service say on a Japanese in Japan. The High Court in England, if a Chinaman were defendant in an action before it, would use the form in the White Book, and there would be no question of Treaty involved. The power to issue Letters of Request, though now specially regulated by the Order of Court, is really inherent in the Courts. The only question really is whether they should here go through the Governor. The question of construction of Article 29 of the Order in Council is therefore reduced to this: I think it is wide enough to allow the Court to issue letters of request direct to the Consul, but if it be thought better that the documents should go through the executive I of course have not the slightest objection.
