Writ of Summons issued to Syed Omer bin Abdolla Aljooned and Syed Ahmed bin Abdolla All Edrose

This is the writ of summons issued on 1 October 1887 to Syed Omer bin Abdolla Aljooned and Syed Ahmed bin Abdolla All Edrose, the defendants in the suit against Hajee Hasim Darwood VC (plaintiff). 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.
