sir,
The Portuguese Government, being aware of the
fact that in Hong Kong ten cases of raw opium from
India are left over each month, has instructed me
to state that it would greatly esteem it if His
Britannic Majesty's Government would authorize the
Governor of Hong Kong to supply the said ten cases
to Macau monthly.
My Government hopes that this request will be
favourably considered by His Majesty's Government.
I have, etc.
(Signed) Th. A. Garcia Rosado.

Sir Austen Chamberlain, K.G., M.P.,
