I am sorry to inform you that I have received
the news this morning 4th, that my cousin William Dobbs,
(Public Works Department, Hong Kong) was drowned about
March 20th and 23rd, whilst returning from New Zealand
on holiday leave, at Ocean Bay, Manly, Sydney, New South
Wales, have written for particulars of death.
May I ask you to let me know as to his belongings
in Hong Kong (if any) or as to their disposal.
Yours respectfully,
(Sgd.) Robert Dobbs.
