A hovi by
My Lord,

Victoria, Hongkong,
1th August, 1850.
In paragraph 41 of my
Despatch Nr. 79 of 23th August, 1849, Your Lordship's notice
I brought under
a peculiar card of hardship which led me to reduce the rental of Marine Lot 58267
1206 .2 . to its upset price, £51. 11. 2,
from £51.11.2
• preferenced to its total resumption by this Government. This reduction was sanctioned in Your Lordship's reply, N.
•
156 of 21th December last; and I had hoped
that the
the
owner
it would have enabled the arrangement there of to continue to hold it, but the Lot having been entirely
the Buildings on
consumed by fire in March last, Mr.
The Right Honorable
The Earl Grey,
So,
So,
So.
