by the Board of Trade of Clause 5 (b) of the Ordinance, I
am informed that as a matter of fact junks over 150 feet
in length are never seen in Hongkong waters. As regards
other ships over this length which when at anchor carry
two white lights in accordance with the collision regula-
-tions enacted by Orders-in-Council, it scarcely appears
necessary to further legislate to safeguard those respons-
-ible for distinguishing at night such stationary vessels
from junks under way.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord,
Your Lordship's most obedient,
humble servant,
Mhathon
Governor, &
Scc..
