Notice of the hearing of the petition of Mark Stone

This is a notice issued by the Supreme Court of the Straits Settlements on 1 August 1912 for the hearing of the petition of Mark Stone for his admission as a solicitor and advocate to the 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.
