It is not among the Works specified in the Schedule to Ordinance 9 of 1893, but possibly it is intended to come in under "Extension and improvement of the gaol." This is only a matter of detail, as the $2500 dollars can be made up out of Revenue.
General ?0 The despatch appears to answer 1141 as well as 24656; but it does not touch upon the question in Chinese asked for handly torn. It is very difficult to understand the question of the proposed change in teaching, (See par. 5. of S. g stati's desp: 14-44 Feb 93) luminces the governors S.g remarks at the distribution of prizes bear upon it. I think perhaps leave it where it stands.
