It is desirable that the contribution should be made before the end of the current year. I thought it better to instruct him to do it at once.
119 DRAFT. Ca. MINUTE. 31. Kent 2/x, Mr. Statts & Mr. Fiddes. Sir H. Just.. Sir J. Anderson. Lord Lucas. Mr. Harcourt.
Sent. 4. I am not apprehensive that you will pay for it. I frame both halves of the draft here. It can be drawn on the Governor & Commander-in-Chief for the Colony for £100, say the Government of Hong Kong 1911.
Hope the loss is not serious. Saying where authorised is wanted. Hope the draft is to your satisfaction.
