My Lord,
I have the honor to
report that the 8 months leave of
absence granted to me from my
station (Hong Kong) will expire
on the 29th April next and to make application for an
extension thereof for 12 months from
that date on the ground of Ten (10)
years residential service in
the Colony and the effects of the relaxing Climate
of England on my constitution.
The accompanying document will
confirm the above statement.
I have the honor to be,
The Right Honble
The Earl of Kimberley,
Your Lordship's
most obedient humble Servant
John Gissart
