With reference to my telegram of the 11th.
instant, of which I annex a transcription, I have the honour
to inform you that Mr. D. Hollis has resigned his post as Assistant Master in Queen's College, and left for England on the 2nd. instant, after refunding the cost of his passage to
the Colony.

The delay that has elapsed since Mr. Hollis
tendered his resignation in March last is due to the fact that
a Mr. Mitford, formerly of Weihaiwel and now of Yokohama, was
offered the vacant appointment on probation and after signifying
his desire to accept it finally telegraphed his refusal on
the 4th. instant.

I attach the usual paper of particulars
with regard to the appointment, and have to request that you
will be good enough to urge upon the Crown Agents the desirabili.
-ty of selecting a suitable successor soon enough to allow of
his arrival in the Colony before the commencement of the
Michaelmas term.

I attach a copy of the Headmaster's letter
of the 12th. March, with Mr. Hollis's letter therein referred
to.
