Warrant to act and petition issued by Henry Minchin Simons and Petrus Hendrickus Socters

These are the warrant to act and the petition issued by Henry Minchin Simons and Petrus Hendrikus Socters concerning the administration of the goods of Kendrick Jacob van Hooru. They are part of a collection of legal documents from the 19th and early 20th centuries which provides a glimpse into the work of the notable personalities who left their mark on Singapore’s legal history, and the economic and other transactions undertaken by ordinary immigrants in 19th century Singapore that tell stories of misfortune and indebtedness which would otherwise have disappeared from history.
