GOVERNMENT HOUSE.
HONGKONG. 18th. October, 1916.
Sir,
23975
With reference to my Despatch No. 246 of the 9th, July, 1914, and your telegram of the 3rd. August, 1914, I have the
honour to inform you that I opened the School for Indim boys pre-
-sented by Mr. Ellis Kadoorie on the 16th. of October.
I enclose a report of the proceedings from the "Hongkong Daily Press" newspaper. I would draw special attention to the fact that the cost of the buildings has been $35,000 all of
which has been borne by Mr. Ellis Kadoorie. His original offer was
to build a school at a cost of $20,000 but with his usual generosity
he has nearly doubled that sun.
I have the honour to be,
Sir.
Your most obedient,
humble servant,
६
