As we are unable at present to communicate with
Germany
to obtain remittances for this indebtedness we wrote with this
view to the Liquidators of Messrs. Jebsen & Co., Hongkong, til
Joint Guarantors of the account, and have received their reply
of which we enclose a copy, stating that there are ample funds
and that they were putting the page before the Attorney-General
for reference to your goouself. In accordance with this suggestion
made in their said letter we now beg to approach you with regard
to the necessary authority for payment out of runas of Jebsen & Co.
in Liquidation in Hongkong, and we shall be prepared to give the
Guarantee mentioned by the Liquidators. We further enclose for
your perusal copies of our letter or 10th April to the Hongkong
Liquidatora with translation of the respective Guarantees for
which the Liquidators have asked us.
