My Lord,

Macao, March 25, 63.

JULY 11. 1843

RECEIVED

I do myself the honor to forward, for the information of Your Lordship, Copies of two Memoranda and four Letters which I have recently made and written, connected with complaints that have been preferred to me.

The Proceedings in some of these cases are much too bulky and voluminous to be transcribed and sent to Your Lordship, but as it is possible that my acts may either be appealed against or brought in some shape to the notice of Your Lordship, I think it desirable to submit them; and the Memorandum marked A. will explain the origin and nature of the different complaints.

I have addressed Your Lordship in the present despatch on these topics, though the immediate establishment of Courts at Hongkong will provide for all similar cases in future.

The Earl of Aberdeen K.T.
