20th August, 1844.
I have the honor to acquaint
Tower Excellency that several persons, American as well as English, have erected buildings on the Chinese shore opposite to Hongkong,
near Tseen-tha-
I understand that they have paid money to the Chinese Officers on shore to Enable them to live there.
I think it right to give due notice to Your Excellency of this proceeding, and to state that the same has been done
without my permission or authority.
With an
assurance of Your Excellency's happiness.
His Excellency,
the Governor, Keying, High Imperial Commissioner
