1 : any other implemented in a British possession, and that not the least of the embarrassments of Hongkong has been produced by appeals to this Governor in very trifling details and the resistance made to his attempts to place the Office on a proper footing whenever his regulations interfered with the opinions or views of individuals.
260 not brought by Official Reliance addressed to "Messrs. Jardine Matheson & Co." by the "Mails of Athens" sent by Captain Henry Pottinger to Hongkong by the "Braid of Athens" on or about the 17th, 18th, and 25th May, and not delivered until the 26th.
Body There are now two scales difficult to reconcile. The first complaint is the delay in delivery of letters. Mr. Gibb, on behalf of Livingston & Co., explained that though he made daily application at the Post Office, he did not know where to make application for letters which might be there, and that letters of value are stated to have been made daily.
Officials have not made daily returns, states that he did not know where to deliver them, which might be of value to their owners.
