Strong support for the Bill was voiced by the Hon. Sir Shou-son Chow, the Chinese representative, and the Hon. Mr. W. E. L.

It was therefore his duty, as the re- presentative of that body, to risė in support at the proposed legisla tlon. It was needless for him to point out that Hongkong was peculiarly situated on the borders of China, and in the heat of the political moment was particularly sensitive to political emotions.

the community of Quarry Bay, the late Mr. Perrie was held in high- est esteem. Genial, affable and obliging, "Bob" was eyer ready to. serve a good turn and tender sym-, pathy and advice. As an adept with the cue for several years he held the club billiards champion- ship and carried off the Swire Cups.

It is with deepest regret that his passing is recorded and that he was not spared to enjoy in his leisure, those interests which so absorbingly, provided his regen- fion in the normal intervals of his work.
In recent years Mr. Perrie made frequent visits to Macao, and many week-end trippers will misa his familiar personality,"
