In reply to your letter of the 28th instant, £

directed to inform you that is Excellency the Officer Ad:inis-

tering the dovernment will recommend to the secretary of tata

that the ruling against the Attorney Goneral acting us Chlor

Justice should in the circumstanose you mention not apply to you.

With regard to the last 5 paragraphs of your letter I

am to point out that the point emphasised in the 4th & 8th para-

graphs of llis Excellency's despatch lo.174 of the 21st of say is

that inconvenience has arieer and aut continue to arise from

judges who have in other cupaoitios boom previously comected

with causes which come before them, declining to take part in

their houring. Whether the inconvenience caused in the case you

refer to was legitimate or not does not affect the argument.

I am to add that in no instance did it happen that

Sir William Goodman though he acted for 10 yours as attorney

General, declined to hear a cause for to rossone stated above.

This may have been a fortuitous circumstanco. The fact remains,

however, that while he was Chief Justice the inconvenience now

complained of did not arise.

i az, bir,

Your obedient servant,

CB.] Am Thoman,

Colonial wocrotary.

The Attorney General.
