Dear Gwatkin,
it March, 1927.
Many thanks for your letter
of the 22nd February about Nemazee.
We are glad to find that you agree
that there is no reason for denying
him ordinary travelling facilities
until he is proved guilty; but we are
in some doubt as to what is implied by
your suggestion that the "onus of
proof rests upon the Hong Kong Govt.".
If this means that llong Kong must
assume that Nemazee is concerned in
the illicit traffic in opium unless
they can prove that he is not, then
we certainly carnot agree with you.
