Harbour Department.
Hongkong, 6th May, 1880.
I have the honour most respectfully to request that I may be permitted to remit the sum of $921.00 for the purpose of the expenses of my family who are in England.
This remittance if permitted will amount to $1598.# to which, I shall have remitted this year,
but as it is well within my year's half salary I trust that this favour will be granted.
Easter is earlier than usual consequently School bills
Honourable F. Stewart, LL.D.
Acting Colonial Secretary.
