This is a testimonial dated 28 July 1919 for Shrish Chandra Goho from M. Ashraf Ali, a barrister-in-law and a member of the Bengal Legislative Council. 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.
