21st December, 1934.

Dear Dr. Oldham,

Lord Plymouth, who has just gone away for Christmas,

has asked me to thank you for your letter of the 19th

December in which you rive valuable information about the

Bishop of Victoria in connection with his letter to the

Secretary of State asking him to review the Nullah murder

case.

Ia view of the fact that the prerogative of mercy

as been delegated by lis Majesty to the Governor the

Secretary of State felt unable to intervene in thecase, and

a telegram has been sent to the Governor asking him to inform

the Bishop to that effect.

Yours very truly,

Dr. J.H.Oldham, M.A., D.D.

sd. T.W. Davies.

Private Secretary.
