on 17th. July, 1909, wrote that the scheme though not ideal could be

worked until the Colony's finances allowed of a third Judge who how--

-ever was not urgently required except to constitute an Appeal Court.

Er. Rees Davies said that in normal conditions he did not consider

there was any necessity for a 3rd. Judge except for the Appeal Court

(2nd. September, 1910). Other sugestions were made by declined by the

who adheres to the Shanghai scheme on retirement of his to siggott, Secretary of State/- despatch of 7th. September, 1909. Sir F. Piggott had an opportunity of personally discussing it at the Colonial Office, and the Secretary of State directed that he should be told to let

the matter drop. He however would not do so, and wrote a further series of letters sent to Secretary of State 22nd. October, 1910. The Secretary of State on 12th. January, 1911, replied finally deciding (in view of Sir H. Lay's despatch) that "additional assist- -ance on the Hongkong Bench for the ordinary work of the Supreme Court was not necessary and on tr✅Septemwerɣrifił the 2nd. September, 1910, he again wrote that after discussion with Mr. Ress Davies he was "convinced that except for the purpose of constituting a Court of Appeal the appointment of a 3rd. Judge could not be justified". He therefore had decided on the Shanghai scheme with concurrence of the Foreign Office and instructed me to discuss the draft bill with Sir H. de Sausmarez and to bring the scheme into operation early in 1912. The discussion of certain suggestions regarding the bill, together with a fresh campaign against the whole scheme by the Chief Justice evoked expressions of opinion in favour of a third judge from Mr. Alabaster (Acting Attorney-General) Mr. Pollock and Mr. Kemp, Crow Solicitor (who however had not I think seen the previous correspondence). Meanwhile Mr. Barnes (Colonial Secretary) studied the whole question and said he could see no case whatever for adding a third Judge with a salary of presumably £1,300 to try petty cases. He proposed the addition of a third Magistrate as a 3rd. class appointment, and to increase the powers of the 1st. and

2nd. Magistrates.

15th. December, 1911.
