Hongkong, 23rd. November, 1915.

Chs. J. GayoD & CO. - in liquidation.

We beg again to refer to the lemorandum of Collateral Agreement between Che. J. Goupy & Co. and the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation dated 12th. August and lat. September, 1914,

a copy of which was forwarded to you with our letter of 14th.

June, 1915.

We enclose a copy of a letter addressed by us to the

Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation under date of 20th.

August, 1915, which, we understand, the Bank have already shown

you.

It appears to us that we must carry out the strongly

expressed desire of the British Crs litors to question the

validity of the Collateral Agreement especially in view of Mr.

Potter's opinion of which a copy is enclosed.

We should thank you to advise us what course you

consider we should adopt to obtain the directions of the Court in

the matter.

We presume that Section 6 of the Alien Enemies (Winding up) Amending Ordinance ap lies to the present situation.

(Să-.)

We are atc..

Chs. J. Gouppp & Co. Lowe Bingham and Matthews,

Liquidators.

The Honourable

The Attomey-General,
