Dear James on,

The Hong Kong Case of Piracy.

I enclose a copy of the Case submitted to the

Law Officers, to complete your papers. I am not sure

now that you have a copy of the Memorandum by the third

legal adviser to the Foreign Office, but I am under the

impression that the Foreign Office has in fact printed the

Case with its annexures, and the Opinion, and you may be

able to obtain either prints of the Foreign Office

Memorandum or indeed of the whole of the papers,

if you

ask Duncan to drop either Beckett or Fitzmaurice a line.

The Foreign Office number is F.6687/308/10. I have no

spare copies of the Foreign Office Memorandum, and it is of

such a length that I prefer to ask you to obtain any

further copies of it from the Foreign Office, rather than

have further copies prepared here.

F.R.W. James on, Esq., D.S.O., M.C.,

Colonial Office,

Downing Street,

S.W.1.

MCC/EMC

Yours sincerely
