21st September, 1916.
Sir,
In continuation of my Confidential Despatch of the 6th September, I have the honour to transmit a copy of a letter addressed by Mr. Consul-General Jamieson to Sir John Jordan which explains the present situation in the Kwangtung
province.
So far as Hongkong is concerned it is apparent that the feelings of the people of Canton are more satisfactory as many merchants who with their families had repaired to this Colony during the recent disturbances have returned to Canton to re-open their businesses.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient,
humble servant,
Homag
Governor,&c..
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
ANDREW BONAR LAW, M.P.,
