sir,
I have the honour to inform you that the acces-
sion of His Majesty the King was proclaimed by me in this Co-
lony on the 29th,ultimo, and as I have informed you in my tele- gram of the same date the proclamation was received with great enthusiasm by many hundreds of persons comprising all the na~
tionalities which are included in the resident population of
Hong Kong.
I attach for your information a copy of the
Casette Extraordinary which I issued immediately after the
ceremony, from which you will observe that I associated with
myself the names of representatives of every section of the
community.
