Sir H Lambert

I think not,

No, though he had some talk with me

about who would represent us if we have a repre-

sentative. I am inclined to think that Mr.

u. R. Innes, O.M.G., Deputy Agent at the M.S. Inf.

Agenoy in London, would be suitable. Te can

easily spare him from the Agenoy. He was Judge ih

Malaya, and acted for years as Ch. Jud. Connr.

He is an admirable linguist, both French

and German and other languages ). See record in

0.0. List.

I have never discussed the opium question with him,

and the first step would be to do so, and make sure

that he holds sound views. But as Mr. Freeston will

be back on the 1st of March, we might wait for

his return so that he may have his say in

the matter (I believe he will agree ) and be

present at my interview with Ar. Innes.
