23rd September 1901
I have the honour to report for the information
of the Secretary of State that on the 17th instant we sent
to Inspector T. Duncan of the Hong Kong Police the usual
instructions as to his medical examination prior to his
returning to the Colony at the expiration of his present
leave of absence, and in reply to our communication he has
forwarded to us the enclosed letter addressed to the
Secretary of State resigning his appointment.
We should be glad to receive the Secretary of
State's instructions in the matter as soon as possible, as
if it is decided that Inspector Duncan is not to return to
Hong Kong we shall have to apply to the P. & O. Company
for a refund on account of his return passage ticket.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your Obedient Servant
The Under Secretary of State,
