Hastings, and transmitted by him likewise without objection
to the Court of Directors, and alleged to contain accounts of money
received by Mr. Hastings,--and it being in proof, that Mr. Hastings, on
the 11th of May, 1778, moved the Board to comply with the requisitions
of the Nabob Mobarek ul Dowlah to reappoint the Munny Begum and Rajah
Gourdas (who made up those accounts) to the respective offices they
before filled, and which was accordingly resolved by the Board,--ought
to be read?

_Answer._--The Lord Chief-Baron of the Court of Exchequer delivered the
unanimous opinion of the Judges upon the said question, in the
negative,--and gave his reasons.

_Fifth._
_Question._--Whether the paper delivered by Sir Elijah Impey, on the 7th
of July, 1775, in the Supreme Court, to the Secretary of the Supreme
Council, in order to be transmitted to the Council as the resolution of
the Court in respect to the claim made for Roy Rada Churn, on account of
his being vakeel of the Nabob Mobarek ul Dowlah,--and which paper was
the subject of the deliberation of the Council on the 31st July, 1775,
Mr. Hastings being then present, and was by them transmitted to the
Court of Directors, as a ground for such instructions from the Court of
Directors as the occasion might seem to require,--may be admitted as
evidence of the actual state and situation of the Nabob with reference
to the English government?
1789, July 2.
