Government House,
Hongkong, 29th. June, 1905.
Referring to the concluding para-
-graph of my Confidential Despatch of the 24th. instant, I
have the honour to transmit for your information a copy of
a letter addressed by Dr. Bell to the Colonial Secretary
in reply to the letter of reprimand, a copy of which formed
the fourth enclosure of my above quoted Despatch.
2.
Apart from his conduct in connec-
-tion with Dr. Laing's case of which I was unable to take
other than a serious view, Dr. Bell's service under this
Government has been in every way creditable to him.
I have the honour to be,
sir,
Your most obedient
Humble servant,
Mr. Nathan
Governor, &c..
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
ALFRED LYTTELTON, K.C., M.P.
