As suggested we should call attention to the obvious misprint of $4800 for $4200 at the end of Section 2.
With regard to the post of Assistant Justice see 6694. Mr Buckle is due back in Hong Kong on or about the 2/4/97.
I agree to see Graham in the 4th prox. I suppose therefore he is just starting & shows it No 39.
It will not be necessary to inform him or C. Agents of his appointment as mentioned in the above.
Private Secretary,
