Sir,
PRINTED FOR PARLIAMENT
H. March 1860
I think it due to Mr. Caldwell,
whose name has been before the Colonial
Office so frequently of late, to report that I have received five separate petitions from an aggregate number of 918 Chinese inhabitants of this city praying that Mr. Caldwell be retained in his post of
Protector of Chinese.
The Right Honorable
Sir Edward B. Lytton, Bart., M. P.,
