The Commissioner for Foreign Affairs to Er. Consul Kirke.

August 28, 1926.

Robbery from Teo Tee Swee's House.

175

Sir,

With reference to the robbery from Teo Yee Swee's house,

have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the

13th. instant forwarding a list of the stolen articles, which was

transmitted to the police office with instructions that the fire-

arne and ammunition taken by them from Teo'a house should be all

returned.

The Chief of Police now states that on receipt of my orders

he summoned Too Yee Swee to exhibit his gun licences for inspee-

tion on which his firearme ko. would be returned to him. 70

the surprise of the police, however, Teo did not obey the

summons, en attitude which they find quite inexplicable and they

are now suspecting that he possesses no licence. Further, the

police find that Teo Tee Swee's list of firearms &o. does not

tally with their own.

The police have sent me a list of the firearms &c., of

which I now forward you copy. I have the honour to request that

you will instruct Teo Yee Swee to send his gun licences for

inspection.

I have eta.

Commissioner for Poreign Affairs.
