I have been engaged in Medical practice for nearly 11. Apars in the southe of China . 241⁄2 years in Macnos the re- maunder of the time in Hongkong. My opinion is that it is most désirable for all Europeans to have a change of ei - mate, after a residence of five continued years in Hongkong, and that a
Years residence in a European climate is not at all too much to recruit their health and vigour -
I am also strongly of opinion that very few Europeans can live continually in a climate like that of Hongkong without permanent deterioration of their health
and constitution, both mentally and phy_ sically-

After a residence of nearly seven years in the Soutle of China, during which time Shave been engaged in Medical practice in HongKong and Canton, Jam of opinion that all Europeans require a change to Europe after a residence of five years in Hong Kong.
Jam also of opinion, that not less than one years residence in Europe, is necessary to recruit their health after five years residence-
in this climate.
I believe that few Europeans can stand a residence of more than 12 or 15. years,
with
out permanent injury to their health and
constitution
