TESTIMONIALS AND
CERTIFICATES BY SOLICITORS
The Council think it advisable to draw the
attention o f the profession to frauds, in which
solicitors have been inadvertently implicated, which
have been perpetrated on the British Commissioners
o f Inland Revenue. In areas with large migratory
populations there have been several cases o f the
falsification o f Church baptismal certificates for the
purpose o f claims for income tax relief by Irish
citizens working in England. Genuine baptismal
certificates were obtained, the particulars thereon
were bleached out by some chemical process, false
particulars were superimposed, and the certificates,
as altered, were submitted to the Commissioners of
Inland Revenue in London. In one case the false
particulars were typed in by a macnine which was
proved to have belonged to a solicitor and was at
the material time in use m his office,-as weR as By.
