Capt. Pennefather carries away with him the best wishes of a large circle of friends not only in Hongkong but in Singapore and the coast ports. He takes with him, too, a good many presents from Amoy, Swatow, Singapore and Hongkong, including a gold watch which was handed to him at a farewell function at the local
office of B. and S.
He is pleasant, cheerful company full of reminiscences of "the good old days," though he admits he likes the present quite as well.
A representative of the S. C. M. Post discovered Capt. Pennefather at one of his old Clubs yesterday chackling over having won "a few chips" at his favourite game before going Home. Surrounded by a host of friends it was almost impossible to get him to talk of himself.
"And so you are going home on retirement, Captain?" the Morning
