Subsequent Order to discharge the witness.— ( Section 75. )
IN THE POLICE COURT AT VICTORIA IN THE COLONY
OF HONG KONG ,

To the Superintendent of the Victoria Gaol in the said Colony.
Whereas by (my) order dated the day of instant, reciting
that A.B. was lately charged before (me) for a certain offence therein mentioned,
and that E.F. having appeared before (me), and being examined as a witness
for the prosecution in that behalf, refused to enter into a recognisance to give
evidence against the said A.B., and I therefore thereby committed the said
E.F. to your custody, and required you safely to keep hin until after the trial
of the said A.B. for the offence aforesaid, unless in the meantime he should
enter into such recognisance as aforesaid : And whereas for want of sufficient
evidence against the said A.B , the said A.B. has not been committed or holden
to bail for the said offence, but on the contrary has been since discharged,
and it is therefore not necessary that the said E.F. should be detained longer
in your custody. These are therefore to order and direct you , the said
Superintendent to discharge the said E.F. out of your custody as to the said
commitment, and suffer him to go at large.
Dated the day of 18
