No. 3 in 3130/1914.

Sir,

REE 2 APR 18

Government House,

Hongkong, 4th September, 1917.

With reference to Your Honour's letter of the

21st of Juns, I have the honour to transmit for the information

of Your Honour and of the Pulsne Judge the enclosed copy of a letter from the Incorporated Law Society of Hongkong, and of a

nemorandum by the Attorney General representing the views of the

Bar, on the subject of the proposal for the amalgamation of the

two branches in Hongkong of the legal profession.

In the face of the views expressed by both

Solicitors and Barristers, I am not prepared to further consider

the question of amalgamation: nor am I disposed to consider

the question of the extension of the jurisdiction of the

Summary Court.

2.

I should, however, be led if Your Honour would

take into consideration the suggestion made by the Bar for

the institution of the Short Cause List, and the suggestion of

the Solicitors in paragraph 7 of the letter of the Law Society,

à.

I would also draw attention to paragraph 4 of

the same letter and enquire whether means cannot be found to

restrain the prolixity of Counsel.

His Honour

The Chief Justice.

I have &0*,

(sd.) F. H. May,

Governor, &o..
