Where the decree or order is one directing payment of money, there shall be indorsed on the copy of it served on the person required to obey it, a memorandum in the words, or to the effect, following:-\n\n\"If you, the within-named A.B., neglect to obey this decree [or order] by the time therein limited, you will be liable to have a writ of execution issued against your goods, under which they may be seised and sold, and will also be liable to be summoned by the Court, and to be examined as to your ability to make the payment directed by this decree [or order], and to be imprisoned in case of your not answering satisfactorily.\"\n\n113. A decree or order may direct that money directed to be paid by any person be paid by such instalments as the Court thinks fit.\n\n114. All money directed by any decree or order to be paid by any person shall be paid into Court in the suit or matter, unless the Court otherwise directs.\n\n115. Every person not being a party in any suit, who obtains an order, or in whose favour an order is made, is entitled to enforce obedience thereto by the same process as if he were a party to the suit. And every person not being a party to any suit against whom obedience to any order may be enforced is liable to the same process for enforcing obedience to such order as if he were a party to the suit.\n\n116. A person directed by a decree or order to pay money, or do any other act, is bound to obey the decree or order on demand made, being duly served with it, and without any demand for payment or performance.\n\n## Execution against Goods\n\n117. Where the decree or order is one directing payment of money, and the person directed to make payment refuses or neglects to do so according to the exigency of the decree or order, the person prosecuting the decree or order shall be entitled to apply to the Court for execution against the goods of the disobedient person.\n\n118. Where a decree or order directs payment of money by instalments, execution shall not issue until after default in payment of some instalment according to the order: and execution, or successive executions, may then issue for the whole of the money and costs then remaining unpaid, or for such portion thereof as the Court orders either at the time of making the original decree or order or at any subsequent time.\n\n## Stay of Execution\n\n119. The Court may, if under the circumstances of any case it thinks fit, on the application of a defendant, and on such terms as seem just, stay execution of a decree or order pending a suit in the same or any other Court in which that defendant is plaintiff and the person who has obtained such decree or order is defendant.\n\n## Seisure and Sale of Goods\n\n120. The Court shall, unless it sees good reason to the contrary, on the application of the person prosecuting the decree or order, issue under the seal of the Court a warrant of execution, directed to a proper officer, who shall be thereby empowered to levy the money ordered to be paid (with the costs of execution) by distress and sale of the goods of the disobedient person, wheresoever found within the particular jurisdiction.\n\n121. The officer executing the warrant may by virtue thereof seise any of the goods of the person against whom execution issues (except the wearing apparel and bedding of himself or his family, and the tools and implements of his trade, to the value of $25, which shall to that extent be protected from seisure), and may also seise any money, bank notes, cheques, bills of exchange, promissory notes, bonds, or securities for money belonging to him.\n\n122. The Court shall hold any cheques, bills of exchange, promissory notes, bonds, or securities for money so seised as security for the amount directed to be levied by the execution, or so much thereof as is not otherwise levied, for the benefit of the person prosecuting the decree or order, who may sue in the name of the person against whom execution issues, or in the name of any person in whose name he might have sued, for the recovery of the money secured or made payable thereby, when the time of payment arrives.\n\n123. The sale of goods seised in execution shall be conducted under the order of the Court, and by a person nominated by the Court, but no steps shall be taken therein without the demand of the person prosecuting the decree or order, who shall be liable for any damage that ensues from any irregularity or from any improper or illegal proceeding taken at his instance.\n\nPage 114", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-109 - Public Offices - 1865.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 271132, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-125 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [10-11]", "page_number": 88, "title": "CO129-125 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [10-11]", "content_text": "The huntsary to the \n\nBead of Frat \n\nFor \n\n26 261 \n\nStonehony \n\n38312479 \n\nAute \n\n87/939 \n\n31 See? 1867 de \n\ndam divites Ethe \n\nBele Benkungsraum (hards thomeant to you for \n\n6 \n\nthe information the tod \n\nWe (W( for Teade and with refermen to garr \n\nyour \n\nbetter of the 25 hor \n\nof a despach from the \n\nGoon or offton Miny \n\nGovern \n\nxporting \n\nin which \n\nently \n\nan instan \n\nCon enlar \n\na \n\nAgent failed 6 Shise \n\na distressed British Seaman when sent to him from \n\nHoughtony. \n\nmt inform you", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-125 - Sir MacDonnell - 1867 [10-11].txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 272516, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-128 - Public Offices & Others - 1867", "page_number": 74, "title": "CO129-128 - Public Offices & Others - 1867", "content_text": "## MINUTE\n\nYou wrote to Sin E.

This has proved to be agreeable to all of the Powers, and the question of the date of the conference having been left to the Netherlands Government, that Government has finally found that the 1st December next is acceptable, and invitations naming that date have been accordingly issued to the assenting Governments.\n\nWith regard to the tentative programme laid down in the Government's circular proposal, the following reservations, additional proposals and suggestions have been made by certain of the participating Powers:--\n\nThe French Government making no objection to items (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (j), and (k) has remarked as to items (a), (g), (i), (l), (m), and (n) of the tentative programme, that item (a) demands the adoption of uniform national laws and regulations to control * the production, manufacture, and distribution of opium, its derivatives and preparations, and expresses the view that they do not believe that it is desirable that this question should be brought up.\n\nPage 3\n\nIn regard to this item it has been explained to the French and British Governments that a mistake was made by this Government in using the words \"uniform national laws\"; that they should have been \"effective national laws\"; that item (g) proposes the application of the pharmacy laws of the Governments concerned to their subjects in the consular districts, concessions, and settlements in China, and expresses the view that at present it would seem to be impossible to accomplish this purpose, as it would tend to place in the hands of the Chinese or nationals of countries not signatories to a convention, the exercise of the profession of pharmacy in the concessions; that item (i), as to the establishment of uniform provisions of penal laws concerning offences against any agreement that the Powers may make in regard to opium production, would mean a modification of French penal laws, and that this is such a grave question that the Government of the Republic is not prepared to bring it up in the French Parliament. As to items (l) and (m), which raise the question of the right of search, and about which public opinion in France has always shown itself particularly susceptible, the French Government would not renounce its principles in this matter to prevent contraband opium. The French Government also reserves its opinion in regard to item (n), which involves the question of an international commission to supervise any international agreement concluded by the conference. Within the limits thus indicated the French Government has declared its readiness to study proper measures to bring about the gradual suppression of the unnecessary production and misuse of opium.\n\nThe German Government agreeing to the general principles of the tentative programme, in particular consented that the morphine and cocaine questions be made the subject matter of deliberations of the conference.\n\nThe British Government, after pointing out that the illicit traffic in morphine and cocaine in India, China, and other Far Eastern countries is becoming more grievous and deadly than opium smoking, and that such an evil is certain to increase, as the restrictions which are now being placed in India and China on the production and use of opium become more stringent, suggested that the Powers participating in the conference should definitely consider beforehand the question whether they would be prepared to make a statistical study of the manufacture and trade in morphine and cocaine and agree to impose severe restrictions on such manufacture of, and trade in the drugs in their respective territories. Further, the British Government has stated that they take exception to those items of the tentative programme numbered (h), (l), (m), and (n); and that they will not be prepared to discuss in the conference :-\n\n1. The arrangement made between His Majesty's Government and China respecting the progressive restriction of opium imports and of opium production in China (i.e., the so-called ten-year agreement);\n\n2. Other existing treaties between the two countries.\n\nIt may be stated that all of the participating Governments have accepted the proposals of the British Government in regard to morphine and cocaine.\n\nThe Chinese Government has suggested in regard to item (a) of the tentative programme that, in drawing up laws and regulations there should be no interference with the sovereign rights of any nation; that, in regard to item (i) that offences against any agreement that the Powers might make should be punished by each country according to its own penal laws; that, in regard to item (l) that the right of search of vessels should be restricted by the Governments concerned to vessels found within their own territorial waters; and in regard to item (n) that there would be no need of an international commission to supervise any agreement reached by the conference and assented to by the interested Governments.\n\nThe Italian Government has pointed out the importance of the question of the traffic in Indian hemp drugs to that Government, and has suggested that the conference might advantageously deal with the question of this traffic.\n\nThe Netherlands Government, while agreeing to the general principles of the tentative programme, at the same time observed that for the Netherlands Indies where the culture of the poppy does not exist, and where the opium Régie is, or will be introduced, the question of most importance to the Netherlands Government is for the conference to arrive at an agreement as to measures to be taken to combat the smuggling of opium.\n\nPage 334", "txt_file_path": "txt/2diw2n4r2/CO129-385 - Public Offices - 1911.txt", "external_url": "", "rank": 0 }, { "id": 450971, "series_id": 27, "series_slug": "histsyn-co129-engine", "series_title": "CO129 Colonial Office Hong Kong Records 理藩院香港檔案", "series_use_hku_proxy": false, "document_key": "CO129-416 - Public Offices - 1914", "page_number": 553, "title": "CO129-416 - Public Offices - 1914", "content_text": "## 8.0\n\n546\n\nC\n\nForeign\n\n1914\n\n10 June\n\n**HONG KONG**\n\n27311\n\nLedition\n\nLeeds\n\namong\n\nRECO\n\n21311\n\nRes | JUN 14,\n\nLikh community at Naukow\n\ncopy desp from Reming Last previous Paper. els corres on autrect reporting that\n\nT8989\n\nPatty\n\nNext subsequent Paper.\n\nIndian forr are considering adernability of sending officer specially to report.\n\nfotten\n\nApparently Nothing - Singapore had her warned.\n\nDons sept shise & ?
