Mr. McLeod, I have the honour to transmit under this enclosure a medical certificate by Doctors O'Brien and Ayres, and copy of a report by the Acting Auditor General answering the other questions raised in Your Lordship's Despatch

I have the honour to be, My Lord, Your Lordship's Most Obedient Humble Servant, H. Pottinger.

Government House, Hong Kong, 14th August 1842.

We do certify that we have examined Mr. McLeod, and that he suffers from general debility but is wholly unfit to remain longer in that Colony and perform his duties. He has suffered much from sickness during the past summer and we consider that he ought to have left the Colony last Spring.
