Your request to be furnished with
a certificate regarding your resignation
from the Hong Kong Service is being
referred to the Governor.
3. The S. of S. sees no objection to
your applying to the Crown Agents for
further employment outside Hong Kong and
the Malay Peninsula, but I am to say that
vacancies are not very frequent, and that
it will be necessary for you to undergo a
strict medical examination in the event of
its being found possible to offer you such
employment.

to inform you that Mr. Shirvington has
applied to me for further employment,
explaining that the ground of his
resignation was illhealth. It is not
certain, however, that the Crown Agents,
to whom his application is being
referred, will be able to offer him
further employment, and in that event
he asks for a Certificate certifying
maybe
that his resignation was voluntary, etc.
You will, no doubt, cause him to be
furnished with whatever document is
customary in the circumstances,
I have, etc.,
