Covernment House,
Hongkong, 8th. November, 1911.
With reference to the request in paragraph 4 of
Your Excellency's letter No. D/2096/11 of the 26th. of last Septem-
-ber that the memorandum of transfer of the Battery Area should be
completed pending the settlement of the other questions still out-
-standing with regard to Mount Davis, I have the honour to forward
herewith a draft memorandum of transfer with the proposed amendments
marked in red ink. The last clause but one has been excised be-
-cause the area which will be subject to clearance rights will as
you desire form a separate agreement. The plan will be those attach-
-ed to the old copy and its counterpart, which I enclose herewith
for convenience of reference.

I shall be glad to learn whether Your Excellen-
-cy concurs in the draft as amended.
I have etc.,
(Sd.) F. D. Lugard,
Governor,&c..
His Excellency
The General Officer Com anding.
