Dear Mrs. Shields,
Thank you very much for your
courteous letter of the 20th September offering to send for the use of this office a report on events in Hong Kong subsequent to the Colony's surrender.
Your brother-in-law very kindly let me see a most interesting letter which you had written to someone in this country detailing some of your experiences. I am sure that a
report from you on similar lines would be most useful to us here and we should be extremely obliged if you could let us have one.
I
I know something at first hand of the fine work your husband did during the battle of Hong Kong. hope that the food parcels and other Red Cross services which we now understand have reached the Colony will ease the situation of the internees, There is some reason to think that conditions are improving
as
Mrs. A.L. Shields.
