Sir,
I am directed by Mr Secretary Chamberlain to inform you that his attention has been called to the fact that you failed to embark on the "Himalaya" by which you were to have sailed for Hong Kong on the 5th inst., and I am to request that you will furnish Mr Chamberlain with an explanation of your reasons for not embarking on that date.
