I am informed that the cost of living in Hong Kong is such that my salary, even when increasing, would not leave much margin after paying necessary expenses. I am very sorry to refuse as I wish to undertake Colonial service, preferably in Cairo, which of course is much nearer home.
Yours faithfully,
Ethel P. Gilbert.
