5. Your petitioner is advised that there is no means by
which her husband can as of right secure the reversal of his
conviction, and that it is most improbable that if he applied
to the Privy Council for special leave to appeal that such
leave would be granted. Your petitioner is also advised that,
in view of the opinion of the Benchers of the Kiddle Temple,
the conviction would be quashed by any Court having jurisdiction
to hear Criminal Appeals.
6. By reason of such conviction and/or the events which
have followed, it has for approximately one year been impossible
for Mr.Brewer to make a living in this Colony and even now
it appears to your petitioner that if her hisband were to
return his hopes of getting a living would be very seriously
circumscribed.
7. Apart from the above, so long as that conviction stands,
it is a serious handicap to her husband's efforts to earn a
living. Without going into details, it is sufficient to point
out that there are some positions in life which cannot be held
by Mr.Brever so long as his conviction stands.
