Mr. Coleman. As a lawyer?

Mr. Ritchie. Yes; I glanced over it.

Mr. Coleman. You read what you felt was relevant?

Mr. Ritchie. Relevant.

Mr. Coleman. But you did thumb through every document?

Mr. Ritchie. Yes.

Mr. Coleman. What did you then do?

Mr. Ritchie. I made a judgment there was no passport action to be taken, and marked the file to be filed.

Mr. Coleman. Did you make a written memorandum?

Mr. Ritchie. No, sir; just put "file" on it.
