I am very glad to know, confidentially, of the future prospects
of the Hong Kong University.

Meantime, as I am an old man in my 82nd year, vainly endeavour
to put my house in order, would it meet with your aproval if
I delivered the gold trowel to the Colonial Office?
With grateful thanks for your advice,
Yours sincerely,
A
