suDJectto deductions as explained at foot of

Sixthly,-Copy in volumes No. 1 and 9 of
Mr.. Greenway's merchandise account. ex-
tracted from the books beginning on 9th
September, l84l, and ending on the 10Th of
December, l842. This copy will be of great
use in determining any question that may
ARISE as to the true value of Mr.. Green
ways stock on hand on the 18th of April,
1912, and Of the prices at which the assign
ees afterwards sold off goods of the same de-
scription and quality.
Seventhly.-Copies ofthe l5 Auction sales,
made by order Of Mr.. Greenway's assignees,
taken from the book kept by them.
Your committee are constrained to state,
that in their impartial and unbiased opinion,
a very great error, and one highly preiudi-
cial to Greenway, French, and all their Joint
and several creditors, was made in the pro-
ceedings, arising out Of the meeting of the
18th of April, l842, in the continued endeav-
ors to disioin Mr.. French from his partner
ship liability with Mr.. Greenway, and to en-
act of, and sue him for, a balance due ON an
account between the parties, which His Ex-
cellency, the Governor of Oahu, refused to
compel Mr.. French to pay. That balance
was 'torced," on the second of April, 1912;
MIR. Greenway acknowledged that it was in
correct, in his letter from Pearl River. of 23d
April, 1913; Reynolds and Ladd sent unto
Skinner and Simpson accounts, showing that
it was incorrect; and respecting it, Mr..
Greenway himself, in a letter addressed to
MIR. Wyllie, under date Gath June, last, ex-
presses himself thus;-" The account rith
Mr.. French, dated Cd .April, l842, / would
again fully impress upon your mind, is q forced
account; the prices therein charged, either in
Mroice account or otherwise, for goods, etc.,
hare nothing to do mith a proper Settlement
there are items ofdebit and credit to be added:
Mr.. Fremch's accounts, as a partner of mine,
are required.'
1t is but fair to Mr.. Reynolds, and to Mr..
Skinner, to state that Mr.. Alexander Simp-
son clearly avowed his having advised Mr..
Greenway to the course intimated at the
meeting Of the 18th April, l842, in an auto
graph letter addressed to Mr.. French, on the
A~tAA VI tAAot ouiiiS III CIIl yCdI.
If the view deliberately taken by your
committee be correct, the less you interfere
in the partnership Account between Mr..
French and Mr.. Greenway, and the more
strictly you hold Mr.. French to his acknow-
Judgement of liability as Senior Partner, so
much the better for the payment in full of all
your just claims upon MIR. Greenway's estate,
up to the unnecessary and extraordinary
proceedings, which took place on the 18th
April, 1912, and so much the more will you
consult the rights and wishes, of the partners
themselves.
The arrangement contemplated by Mr..
French, with the government, as aforesaid,
(of which Mr.. French will give you explana-
tions) is for the present suspended, by a
question that has been started, relative to
the custody Of the money deposited in the
name Of the estate, with the British Commits
sion, and now in H. B. Ms. Consulate Cen
eral, until you agree to its distribution &C
cording to a schedule to be presented through
Assignees, or Trustees, properly appointed
by you.
1t is for you to remove that suspension,
either by following up your Resolution, pas
sed at your last meeting Of the llth, ultimo,
through the appointment Of assignees, as
above qualified, or by rcvoking that Resolu-
ton, and substituting another, providing that
all monies shall be paid unto, and disburscd
by, the government, or Court of Chancery,
Of this country, for the general benefit, so as
fully to meet the condition declared by II.
B. NJ. Consul General, at your meeting of
the 4th March, last.
Unless you do so, II. B. NJ. Pro-Consul
must hold the deposit, for your benefit, in the
same condition in which the Consul General
left it.
Your committee do not perceive that you
