With reference to the telegraphic cor-
-respondence noted in the margin,
I have the honour to request Your Excellency to be so kind es to
convey to the authorities of the
Rockefeller Institute the grateful thanks of the Govern-
ment of Hongkong for the generous help rendered by them in
sending First Lieutenant Peter K. Olitsky to study the
outbreak of Cerebro-spinal fever in this Colony and for supplying serum free of cost.
First Lieutenant Olitsky arrived on
the 6th May and it was on his recommendation that I tele-
graphed on the 14th May to the effect that only the serum
already manufactured should be sent.
I take this opportunity of thanking
Your Excellency for your kind offices in this matter.
I have, &c.,
(Sd.)
F. H. May,
Governor, &c..
His Excellency
The Right Honourable
The Viscount Reading, G.C.B., K.C.V.O.,
British Embassy,
Washington, U.S.A.
