The Under Secretary of State,

Colonial Office,

Downing Street.

Sir,

In confirmation of our call of yesterday, we have the honour to inform you that our Secretary, Mr Frank Huxham is on his way to pay a commercial visit to China and Japan, in our interests, and to request that you will give him a letter of introduction to the Governor of Hong Kong.

No doubt you are aware that we are large contractors to the War Office, and we may say that our Chairman (Mr Arthur Chamberlain) is the brother of the Colonial Minister.

If it is possible, we should be glad if you would mention these facts in your letter, as our object in sending Mr Huxham out is to endeavour to extend our reputation into these countries.

We have the honour to be,

Your obedient Servants,
