I have the honour to inform you that I have
provisionally appointed Mr. C. W. Duggan of the Police Department
to be Secretary to the Sanitary Board in succession to the
late Mr. Mc.Callum, and to recommend the appointment for your
confirmation.
The other applicants whose names were favour-
ably mentioned and who possess a knowledge of Chinese, an ac-
quaintance with which is regarded as necessary for the holder
of the post by the Members of the Board, were Mr.G.A.Woodcock
of Queen's College and Mr. E.M.Hazeland of the Public Works
Department.
In view of the report of the Examiners in Chi-
nese a copy of which is enclosed and of Mr. Duggan's experience
and long service, extending over 30 years, I am of opinion that
he is the best officer for the appointment.
