Summons in Chambers concerning the case between Edward Blair Michell and Edward Henry French

These are the summons in chambers issued on 6 October 1888 concerning the suit between Edward Blair Michell of Bangkok (plaintiff) and Edward Henry French of Bangkok (defendant). These summons were taken out by the plaintiff for an order for the continuation of this suit in the settlement of Singapore. This document 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.
