Officer in Chief
312 will be pleased (should be not so fit to come to a decision) from the facts and documents which he has are to remit back the case, with my statement thereon, for the consideration of the Hong Kong Government; which, should their decisions be public, will enable me to complete the unfinished business favourably and thereby prevent me from incurring any loss which I have already sustained.
I forbear making any further remarks on the extreme hardship of the case, in addition to those contained in the Statement which I lately transmitted to this Office; but I take the liberty of enclosing a communication which I first received from the Hong Kong Government acquainting me with Lord Stanley's decision on my claim, from which I inferred that my claim to the land was admitted on the same terms as those fixed for other lands similarly situated - should it not be required for the specific Government purposes therein stated. But although the grant has not been refused, it has been left without any final decision on my claim up to the present time.
I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient Servant, Robert Webster Esquire.
N:10. Original referred MM516 Government House, Victoria (Hong Kong) July 11. 1845
In forwarding to you the accompanying Original Letter from the Earl of Aberdeen, I am directed by the Honorable The Governor to inform you, that the Instructions received from Lord Stanley with respect to the Lots of Ground claimed by yourself and W. Kinsey are to be guided by the general Rules.
