NOTICE.
437
Consignees and Masters of Ships are hereby informed that, after the 15th Proximo, the Boundary, North of which Vessels shall not anchor, is as follows:-
Kellet's Island bearing E. by S. § S.
All Ships to be properly moored with 35 fathoms Chain (East and West).
The passage between the North Boundary of Men-of-War anchorage and the Kowloon Peninsula is to be kept clear.
Steamers and Vessels not having definite employment will still remain on the North side.
H. G. THOMSETT, R.N., Harbor Master, &c.
Harbor Master's Office, Hongkong, 9th September, 1869.
NOTICE,
Any persons, who have in their possession old Registration Tickets belonging to Servants who have left or have been dismissed, are requested to send the same to this Office, with any remarks, on separate papers, they may wish to have recorded.
It would much tend to the more satisfactory working of the Registration of Domestic Servants, if Registration Tickets were in every case kept completely out of the possession of the Servants themselves. On the dismissal of a Servant his Ticket should be sent to this Office, unless it can be handed at once to his new Employer, and should on no account be confided to his own custody.
ALFRED LISTER, Acting Registrar General.
Registrar General's Office, Hongkong, 28th May, 1869.
