I was on lcavo and you will of course be consulted about our despatch when it is ready. (It seems to me that the practical need to raise money for projects of this kind is much more likely to persuade liong Kong's unofficials of the desirability ď increased taxation Shan any amount of pious admonition from London!)
Will you please let me know if you have any comments on the draft dospatch?
Yours sincerely,
