Downing Street,

Gentlemen,

/Z November, 1891.

I am directed by Lord

Knutsford to transmit to you the en-

closed copy of a Despatch from the 0.A.G. of Hong Kong and to inform you that his Lordship approves your compliance with the request therein contained for the

selection of three Lighthouse Keepers

for Gap Rock Lighthouse, on the terms specified in the accompanying Paper of

Particulars.

If you engage men who have been in the Trinity House Service, you will be

good enough to ask the Corporation to agree to allow such men the privilege proposed in the paragraph at the top of page 2 of the Paper of Particulars, provided the Hong Kong Government agres

that case to refund to the Corpora-

tion eventually a proportionate share

of the men's pension for the time in

question.
