Sir,
We have the honour to refer to our letter to you of the 18th April last.
2. On the 9th August last we were informed by the Colonial Secretary of this Colony that the Secretary of State for the Colonies has received your letter of the 18th of last April but is of opinion that Ordinances No.39 of 1909 and No.6 of 1911 should not be amended in the manner suggested by you.
3. We must strongly but respectfully deprecate this indirect method of reply. A letter to you from a firm of Solicitors in England would receive a direct answer. We are unable to see why a similar courtesy should not be extended to English Solicitors practising abroad. Our letter enumerated the various points on which our Clients contended they were not getting fair treatment, moderately and respectfully put forward, and in respect of which our Clients felt they were aggrieved and justly aggrieved owing to the Ordinances of the Local Legislature and the decisions.
