Sir,

I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt

of No. 6295/08 of oth. instant, and in compliance therewith I

beg leave to state that

(a)

as regards (4) thereof the leave granted was from

12.15 F.M. or thereabouts and not as stated. Sometime after I

had arrived home I found that my wife appeared to be in labours,

and as hands in the house were limited I had to attend to her,

leaving other matters in abeyance; and

(b) as regards (5) thereof finding that her condition

had not improved in the morning I sent a lemo. to the Hon. Ag.

Attorey-General in these terms: "I beg to apply for a day's leave

on account of my wife's condition", a practice which I had

hitherto followed when urgent occasion needed.

I further beg leave to state that the sole

object of my application for the two days leave of absence was to

personally attend to my wife's accouchement as my means did not

permit of the engagement of a Doctor. I did not, however, consider

it discreet to disclose the object of my application, because

any such statement as emanating from a clerk, a class of people

who are generally supposed to be devoid of any knowledge of mid-

-wifery, I thought would be received with but scant attention

and necessarily suspicion.

I beg finally to state that, as at present

advised, I have nothing further to add to the answers I have

already submitted.

The Honourable

The Colonial Secretary.

I have etc.,

(Sd.) Percy Law.
