Letters to Lallie

Letters to Lallie dated March - 9 December 1904. The letters begin during Dobbie's time on board the S. S. Australia on his way to Europe, and covers the entirety of his time in England. The letters cover the appeal by the Van Diemen's land Company to the Privy Council, and other aspects of his time in England.
Perhaps a highlight of Dobbie's career as Solicitor-General was his visit to the United
Kingdom in 1904. This came about as a result of an appeal by the Van Diemen's Land
Company against a decision of the Supreme Court of Tasmania. The company had brought an
action of trespass against the Marine Board of Table Cape, a semi-government authority. The
Supreme Court of Tasmania had failed to uphold the action. The Van Diemen's Land Company
eventually appealed to the Privy Council in England and Dobbie, as Solicitor-General, was sent
to London to present the case on behalf of the Marine Board and the state government.
