It seems like there are two different letters/documents here. The first part appears to be a draft or a letter discussing a leave of absence for a "Colaucie Treasurer" and mentions Mr. Alexander acting as Registrar. The second part is a formal letter from the Governor of Hong Kong to Lord Knutsford, transmitting a memorial from Mr. Edward James Ackroyd.

After re-examining the text and following the instructions:
