Registrar's certificate of the Supreme Court, Penang for Sze Jin Chan

This is a registrar's certificate issued on 10 March 1911 by the Registrar of the Supreme Court of the Straits Settlements, Settlement of Penang, concerning the petition of Sze Jin Chan for admission as a solicitor and advocate to the Supreme Court. It is 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.
