The large increase in Court fees is attributable to the
elimination of various stratagems whereby, in the past,
parties have sought to avoid the payment of correct dues.
Great credit is due to the ^ourt Dragoman, to whose meticulous
scrutiny and untiring efforts this profitable result is
largely due.
The large increase of registrations this year (and
consequent doubling of fees) is the outcome of a 'Mrive" to
ensure that as far as possible no British subject or British
Protected Person avoided registration. The measures taken
entailed much extra labour but were fully justified by results.
/\gain, great credit is due to the ©ragoman, who in his capacity
as registration clerk, showed unflagging zeal and patience
in dealing with would-be defaulters.
i have the honour to be.
Sir,
Your most obedient servants
