REG 18 SEP 16
sir,
With further reference to your communication of the 12th instant (45178), I am directed by Viscount Grey
of Fallodon to request that Mr. Secretary Bonar Law will
cause telegraphic instructions to be sent, should no
objection be seen, to the Governor of Hong Kong to release
the cargo detained at that port ex S.S. "Kafue".
This Department has been informed that cargo
has been detained at Hong Kong, it is understood on
similar grounds, ex S.S. "Aymeric", and I am to request
that, should this information be well grounded, instructions
may similarly be sent for the release of the cargo so
detained, should this not have been done on some ground
other than that in the case of the "Kafue.
he Under Secretary of State,
Colonial Office,
Downing Street,

I am,
Sir,
Your most obedient,
humble Servant.
Walter Townley

CONTROLLER.
