Postmaster General and in drawing his Lordship's attention to the other points embraced in it respecting which it will be unnecessary for his Lordship to consult Her Majesty's Government.
I am,
Your Obedient,
humble servant,
now part of
Her Majesty's
Hong Kong being Dominions where the Postmaster General has established a Post Office, has become subject to the provisions of the Post Office Acts so far as they relate to or affect the Colonies.
It follows therefore that under the 1 Vict c 33 the Postmaster General and his Agents have the exclusive privilege of receiving, collecting, conveying, and despatching and delivering Letters in Hong Kong, except in the cases therein specified - the letters of Merchants, Owners of Vessels, or of Merchandise, or the Cargo or Loading therein sent by such Vessels are among those excepted;
Consequently such letters if sent in conformity with the Act may be legally forwarded from Hong Kong without passing through the Post Office.
The Inhabitants cannot however make collection of such excepted letters to forward them otherwise than by the Post without incurring the penalties imposed by the Act.
