Code telegram to Mr. Bullock (Addis Ababa).
Foreign Office. 15tli July, 1924. 4.30 p.m,
No. 27. (R).
Your telegram No. 35 (of End July ; Indian
soldier accused of murder)

Taffari will lead to an early solution. In the circumstances
you should proceed under sections 3 and 38 (l) of the
Abyssinian Order-in-Council 1913 yourself to try the

If sentence of long term imprisonment is
inflicted or if a death sentence is subsequently
commuted to one of imprisonment by the Secretary of State,
the Abyssinian government are likely to be less reluctant to
allow prisoner to be sent under guard to .Aden to undergo ni s
puni shment.
