personal question did not enter into the scheme, but

merely the abstract one as to the advisability of

constituting a new Appeal Court.

The use of the word "Court" in my letter has here

been misunderstood. It was used in the well-known

way,

as signifying the Court or building in which the

Chief Justice usually presides: 8.g. The Lord

Chief Justice's Court in the Royal Courts.

This paragraph is evidently based on a misconception

of the details of the scheme. The Court was intended

to be constituted of three Judges: the result of which

would be that in the event of a difference of opinion

between the Chief Justice and the Chief Judge of

Shanghai, the opinion of the Puisne Judge of the

Colony would prevail.

The second part of the paragraph is not sound in law,

On appeals when any personal weight is attached to a

Judge's opinion, the two cases in which it is so

attached - where a matter of discretion is involved:

and where a doubt exists as to the true meaning of the

evidence it is in favour of the Judge who has tried

the case,

and the opinion of the Judge with the

fresh mind does not prevail.
