STAFF IN CONFIDENCE
Whether he is or not however I think it would be best if I
were now to write to the Governor on the lines of the draft
attached.
When we have confirmation from Hong Kong that they
are in agreement with the proposal and that Mr Leonard is willing
to accept appointment I can send the usual telegram conveying
formal approval.
