My Lord,
I have had the honour to receive M. Rr. G. Herbork's letter of the 16th of May last; informing Lordship had approved the grant to me of a pension from Hongkong Funds at the rate of £383:6:8, but that you were unable to comply with my request that the whole of the cost of my passage from England should be defrayed from public funds.
Honorable the Parl of Rimbaly Downing Street:
