THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, MONDAY, JULY 16, 1883-
Mr. T. Jackson then rose and said he had very great pleasure in supporting the resolution. He had had the honor of the intimate acquaintance of Sir Arthur Kennedy, and he cordially echoed the sentiments which had been expressed by the previous speaker. A more benourable, moje up right, more truthful, or more thoroughly respected representative of Her Majesty never came from the Colonial Office. Whether they took him in his private capacity presiding at his table in Gov- emment House, or in his public capacity in the Council Chamber or elsewhere, they found him the same upright, courteous gentleman, They had met to have his memory perpetuated in perpetual bronic I would think it a great pity if those grand old features (pointing to the oil painting of Sir Aukur, at his back,] should ever be forgotten in Hongkong. (applause) He hoped Her Majesty's Government would be fortunate in sending many such Governors to llongkong, and he could only say the inhabitants of the colony would be delighted (applause).
unanimous sentiment, and that was, that what- ever might be done, a memorial to Sir Richard McDonnell will be raised; and they wish for your support and co-operation. He was sure they would express to some extent their opinion on this matter, and that the Chinese would know that while they were doing honour to one Gover nor they would be permitted and would be aided by them to do honour to another.Governor who was the predecessor of Sir Arthur Kennedy, (applause).
The Hon, F. B. Johnson in following up thelast speaker's remarks, said he had only heard that norning of the movement among their Chinese friends of which Mr. Ho Kai had informed them, but as one who was privileged to enjoy the friendship of the late Sir Richard McDonnell he thought he might venture to say the statement made had been heard with great satisfaction by him, and the manner in which it had been re- ceived showed the meeting shared this satis- faction and rightly so, because all knew the eminent services Sir Richard McDonnell zen- dered to the colony, and it also marked the Intelligent appreciation with which the Chinese community recognised good government. He had spoken just then of the success of Sir Arthur Ken- nedy's administration, but he was sure all those who had any experience ofthe state of this colony in the times preceding the administration of Sir Arthur Kennedy would recognise how much the Government of Sir Arthur Kennerly was indebted to the vigorous administration by which it was preceded. He ventured to make these few remarks, but at the same time he would suggest to Mr. Ho Kai that it would be perhaps, not very convenient to mix, up the two things together, and if the Chinese were resolved, memorial to Sir Richard McDonnell, another opportunity should be taken

He was also most anxious' He hoped his mentioning this, that day, would- fccnice, he might add the proverbial munificence, that the Central School-should-be- adéquately--meet-with the support of all the foreign com- ever displayed by the Hongkong community in supported, and the speaker might add that he | munity amongst the Chinese there was one matters of public interest and of public sympathy. himself had the support of the then able Head Having luched on the form of memorial that Moster, whom they all knew very well and who had appeared not to himself alone, but to many was now transferred to another sphere.

If he had interpreted their sentiments correctly, then lie thought they should not embark in a Kenned Institute, Churity, Endowmentorin Kennedy Solarships all admirable no doubt in their utilitarian object. if they embarked in these what would happen a century hence, or less, he might say a quaster of a century hence? Society in this colony being ever shifting and changing, it being like a dissolving view, old faces disappearing every year to be succeeded by new ones, and a quarter of a century hence your Ken. nedy endowment would be there, but the meniory of the man whom they specially designed to honour by such means would have faded in the haze and

He would point his meaning by illustrating that they now had in the middle of our city a large pile of buildings called the Mur- ray Barracks. They are not a thing of beauty, perhaps, but they are pretentious by reason of their vast and capacious dimensions. Not far from them we have Murray Read and a Mur ray Pier, and there is also a Murray Battery It would surprise some of them to learn that all these structures were so called in order to do honour to the name and perpetuate the me- mory of one who was much revered and esteemed by the generation who preceded us. He would ask how many of them, in spite of the hopes and aspirations of those who preceded them, knew who Murray was, and notwithstanding all the structures bearing his name which confront us as daily reminders of that name. He thought it would be the natural feeling of the meeting that the honoured name of Kennedy should not be consigned to the same precarious fate; and there fore he concluded their preference would naturally be that the memorial to be adopted should take the form of a statue, because a public statue of Sir Arthur Kennedy would never lose its individuality, | Ject."

He said he thought that of all the different views that had been thrown out with regard to perpetuating the me- mory of their 'lale lamented Governor the one before the meeting was the best of all, and he therefore had very great pleasure in supporting the resolution (ipplause).

No amendment being offered, the resolution was put to the meeting and was carried un-
animously amid great-applause
The Chairman said that, consequent upon-the passing of the resolution, Mr. W. H. Forbes would now propose a resolution for the purpose of carry- ing it into effect.
Mr. W. H. Forbes then rose and said he had very great-pleasure in proposing the following
resolution:

He ventured to think therefore in theirown case pre-eminently-he said pre-eminently, because, as he remarked before, society here was ever changing like a dissolving view-in the present case, a statue would be the most proper mid most imperishable form of tri- bute they could pay to him whose death they go deeply mourned and whose name they now de air to hand down to posterity as that of a man what as able to win their affections by his print of the business cased ad with the erection af the proposed vate and personal merită, and to command their apect by the even manner in which he held the balance between the mixed races over whom Hatid been sent by his Sovereign to govern, a

Mr. A. P. MacEwen said he had been asked to propose a resolution, and in doing so to make a few remarks. The remarks of pinte and full as however, had been so appropriate touching on the successful career of the late Sir Arthur Kennedy as Governor of this colony, that it would be but a wearisome repetition were he to follow over the same ground. He thought they had touched chiefly on what may be con- sidered the sober and political side of his char- acter, and he could not help thinking that the - lighter shades had a great deal to do in endearing his memory to many old colonists. Perhaps he might bepermitted to alludelothese, as it was more in connection with them that in those days he per sonally knew him. He alluded to the interest he always took in all their pleasures and pastimes. It was he thought, hardly necessary for him to remind those present who were resident in this colony during 1873 to 1875 of the encouragement and support Sir Arthur Kennedy always gave to every exercise that was manly and healthy, and every pleasure that was innocent. He re- ferred to their sports, cricket matches, re gatian, races, and all social gatherings or public entertainments that tended to bring the public together in peace and harmony. These may be considered by-some-as-minor points in a Governor's career, but he could con- fidently affirm that in Sir Arthur Kennedy's case

tons capacity will be all that is necessary to meet the first requirements, in connection with which an agreement-conditional upon the formation of the Company-has been entered into for the purchase of the Steamer "ROYALIST," with the full benefit of all the contracts, engagements and privileges which she has with the Govern- ment, and Chinese Merchants.
The cost of these vessels, together with the erection of suitable godowns, wharves and other accommodation will, it is calculated, absorb about $60,000 of the paid-up capital.
For working capital, the Directors' will be left with 840.000 in hand, to increase which, further calls can be made, should the Company's business expand and extension of its operations and addt- tions to its fleet and establishments be in con- sequence thought desirable.
Meetings of Shareholders will be held annually, and at these the Directors' Reports and Accounts will be presented. In this respect and in all other essential particulars the constitution of the Company will be in conformity with the rules in forca for English Joint Stock Companies.
It is needless to say that no promotion money has been or will be paid. The Directors put forward their scheme in the interests of the East Coast and of the Territory generally, with a con- siderable proportion of the capital already sub- scribed by the local community, and with the promise of their further co-operation, and they trust that their undertaking will meet with the approval and support of all those who are con- cerned in upholding the trade and welfare of North Borneo,
