My dear Gent,
I very much dislike signing despatch No.117
of the 9th February about compensation for the Tung
Wah Infectious Diseases Hospital. The whole thing
seems inequitable but
(a) it appears that Government is bound by
the terms of the lease to give
and
compensation
(b) the offer of $50,000 was made to the
Directors before I reached this Colony and I
do not see how the Government can possibly get
out of it at this stage.
Yours sincerely,
G.E.J. GENT, ESQ., D.S.O., O.B.E., M.C.,
