acts of retaliation on the part of the Self Government Society if they disobeyed its orders, provided of course that those acts took place within the jurisdiction of this Government.

I am in hopes that the Viceroy will feel that he will "lose face" if the Boycott of your Firm is maintained in spite of his very strongly worded proclamation in your praise and I am of opinion that this proclamation affords an opportunity to impress upon the merchants who are at present dominated by the orders of the Self Government Society that they should throw off its yoke and declare themselves to be on the side of the authorities. In this action they cannot fail to have the support of the Viceroy in view of his proclamation as well as of this Government and the result would possibly be to destroy the influence of the Society which I understand is at present much weakened, and has been further weakened by the proclamation. This is the course I had intended to pursue had you furnished me with their names not by means of any public exhortation, but by private advice. If the Self Government Society however at this crisis maintains its hold upon these merchants, its position will be greatly strengthened and a matter which more particularly concerns me - its domination and influence in this Colony will become dangerously effective.

acts of retaliation on the part of the Self Government

Society if they disobeyed its orders, provided of

course that those acta took place within the

jurisdiction of this Government.

I am in hopes that the Viceroy will

feel that he will "lose face" if the Boycott of your

Fira is maintained in spite of his very strongly worded

proclamation in your praise and I am of opinion that

this proclamation affords an opportunity to imprese

upon the merchants who are at present dominated

by the orders of the Delf Government Society that

they should throw off its yoke and declare themselves

to be on the side of the authorities. In this action

they cannot fall to have the support of the Viceroy

in view of his proclamation as well as of this

Government and the result would possibly be to

destroy the influence of the Society which I under-

stand is et present much weakened, and has been

further weakened by the proclamation. This is the

course I had intended to pursue had you furnished me

with their names not by means of any public

exhortation, bgt by private advice. If the Self

Government Society however at this orisis maintains

its hold upon these merchants, its position will be

greatly strengthened and a matter which more particularly concerns me - its domination and

influence in this Colony will become dangerously

effective.
