· JUSTICE SERCOMBE-SMITH.

FAREWELL BY THE PENANG BAR

THIRTY-THREE YEARS' (OLONIAL WORK.

There was a very full and representative gathering of the Penung bar at the Suprenio Court this morning (says the Penang Gazette of the 15th inat, to bid farewell to ale Justice Sercombe-Smith, who goes home on retirement by the P. and 0. mai).

The Solicitor-General (Mr. A. B. Voules), addressing his lordship, said that the men bers of the bar and the officers of the court had met there to bid farewell to him on his retirement from the bench after thirty-three years in the Civil Service, of which twenty five years had been spent in Hongkong and the fast eight in the Straits Settlements and FMS. He (Mr. Voules) frat had the plea- sure of meeting his lordship some

Dutch paper, recently, appeared an article by Mr. John Galsworthy, with the title, "Diagnosis of the Englishnan Among his remarks, which are, of course, chiefly intended to explain the Englishman to the foreigner, occur the following:

"For the particular situation which the Englishman has now to face he is terribly imagination, so little power of expression, he well adapted Because-he-has-so-little- is saving nerve all the time. Because he never goes to extremes, he is saving energy of body and spirit.

At the time his lordship was a shining light in Hongkong cricket, and he had the liveliest recollections of his prowess in the cricket field and his personal kindness to him (fr. Voules) as a guest of, the Hongkong Cricket Club. Since coming to Penang, his lordship various combatanta, and you will see how Examine the letters and diaries of the nd devoted himself to less strenuous pur far less imaginative and reflecting (though suits, but whether at work or at play his shrewd, practical, and humorous) the Eng- lordship had ever set a splendid example bylish are than any others; you will gain, toe giving of his best and playing the game with might and main.

Coming so soon as it did after the retirements of Mr. Justice Fisher and Mr. Justice Thornton, bis lordship's departure would prove a very serious loss to the Colony. He was sure he was voicing the sentiments of all of the members of the bar and also of the officers of that court and the officers of the whole of the Civil Service when he expressed the hope that his lordship might be spared for many years to enjoy the retirement he had so well earned.

This Hon. Mr. A. R. Adams on behalf of other members of the bar re-echoed the sentiments which the Solicitor-General had expressed. They all know, in common with every other member of the public, that they were losing in his lordship a strong and fearless judge. He paid a tribute to the wide knowledge of affairs, the unique power of lucidity of exposition with which nature and training combined had endowed his lordship. Be would retire with the knowledge that the members of the bar and his fellow-men knew that he had ever conducted his services to the

Mr. Justice Ellen asked to be allowed to Rociate himself with all the expressions of admiration, affection and good wishes that had been expressed.

HIS LORDSHIP'S REPLY.

Mr. Justice Sercombe Smith, in reply, said it was quite true that he had served a sery long number of years in the Crown Colonies. It had been more than a leasure to him to listen to what had been said by his learned brother and by the Solicitor-General and Mfr. Adams, and he did not think he would be flattering himself by saying that throughout the whole of his work he had applied himself to it with the best capacity he possessed and that he had never been a shirker.
