I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your despatch informing me that I am appointed by the Duke of Wellington, Surveyor General of Hong Kong.
As I have only recently returned from India, I fear I shall be unable to make arrangements for leaving England before the second steamer in September, the mail due at Hong Kong...
...on the 10th December.
I have the honour to be, Your most obedient servant, W. Wilson
