Mr, Tsang—I will convey all that you have said to Mr. Kenbwell.
The Registrar—I don't know that it is mot almost too Into. It tis Jclear that failure to attend without giving adequate excuse renders one liable to arrest. It is rather an Jeleventh hour to ask you to come here and say he is a Chinese citizen Jand to show certain papers and I don't know whether they have as far made him a Chinese citizen to the extent that he is not a British ubject. I am not going to talk polities, but for many years Mr. 'Kentwell has enjoyed the privileges' lof British nationality in China, an Tuse the word "privileges" visedly. To these privileges are! attached certain obligations and one' of them is, when he is asked attend the Court, to attend.
Mr, Teang—I entirely leave the matter to your Honour.
The Rogistrar—Thank you. To my mind the matter is clear. 1 have stated the facts and thy: Jopportunities given to Mr. Kentwell to attend and clearly explain position, and it is with reluctance, but it ix with a sense that it hat got to be done, that Iam now going' to issue a warrant for his arrest, Joo that he can be brought here and his claim to Chinese nationality gone and explained. You have done all you have been asked to do and T thank you for your explanation, but stilt T have got to do my duty.
