Before the transaction of the routine business at the meeting of the Legislative Council yesterday afternoon, H.E. the Governor reviewed the present political situation in South China He referred to the time in which he lived in Canton and spoke, in cloquent terms, of the sincure affection and esteem" he had for the Cantonese people. "Is it too much to ask," he concluded, "that the Canton Government and the inhabitants of Kuang-tung should believe that we in Hongkong are sincerely anxious to resume with thêm normal and traditional relations of amity, to let byegones be byegones, to forget the unprofitable past and to reach for- ward to a happier future."
The obvious sincerity of the speech had ́a marked effect upon the members of the Council and rounds of applause demonstrated their agree- ment with the views expressed ·
