South African mines, which it is unnecessary to specify
more particularly as they will be within your recollect-
ion, make it in my opinien highly undesirable that
youths of 18 (18 by Chinese reckoning may mean 16 by
English) should be employed underground.
I have the honour to be,
Sir.
Your most obedient humble servant,
7.2. Statty
Governor, &c.
