APPENDIX TO CASE OF GREAT BRITAIN. 173 
should be in her owner’s possession at Victoria aforesaid on or about the Ist day. of 
February, A.D. 1888. If not at that date at Victoria and in possession of her owner, 
it will be impossible to put her in fit and proper condition to start out on said voy- 
age at or about the usual time, which is on or about the Ist March in each year. 
During the summer months there is little for a vessel of the class and equipment of 
the ‘Anna Beck” to do in and about the general coasting trade, and if not engaged 
in hunting and fishing aforesaid the season would be practically lost. ‘The ciaim of 
6,000 dollars as probable loss and damage to the owner of the “Anna Beck” if she 
is detained after the Ist February, A. D. 1888, is a fair and reasonable estimate of his 
said loss by reason of such detention, for the season of 1888. 
15. That hereto annexed, marked ‘‘(E),” is a statement of the principal sums on 
which interest is claimed, the rate thereof, and the time from and to which it is so 
claimed. At the time when the catch of the ‘‘Anna Beck” for 1887 would have been 
realized, on or about the 1st October, 1887, the minimum rate of interest on money 
for commercial purposes at Victoria aforesaid was, has since continued to be, and 
now is, 7 per cent. per annum. 
16. That hereto annexed, marked ‘‘(F),” is a statement of the articles of the outfit 
of the said ‘Anna Beck,” and the value thereof, as given in Exhibit (A), which 
would have been wholly or almost wholly consumed during the course and prosecu- 
tion of a full hunting and fishing voyage in the Behring’s Sea. 
And I, James Douglas Warren aforesaid, make this solemn declaration, conscien- 
tiously believing the same to be true, and by virtue of the “Act respecting Extra- 
judicial Oaths.” 
(Signed) J. D. WARREN. 
Declared and affirmed before me at the city of Ottawa, in the County of Carleton 
and Province of Ontario, this 9th day of December, A. D. 1887, and certified under 
my official seal.
