Secretary of State for the Colonies.
Governor, Hong Kong.
1st May, 1946.
Your sympathetic and encouraging message was received
by me today after the conclusion of the ceremony at which I
resumed the Government of the Colony. It was not therefore
possible for me to deliver it at that ceremony but I am now
giving it the fullest publicity.
On behalf of the people of Hong Kong I tender our most
sincere thanks to you for your greetings and for the confidence
you have in the future of Hong Kong.
Governor.
