Victoria, Honghong,

5th June, 1845.

With reference to the Instuctions in Your Lordship's despatch 8.69 . of

January 2", requiring me to report, whether the Civil Officers of Hongkong decline to avail themselves of the previsions of the superannuation act, I have the honor to state that I have been requested by thon officers to somove

respectfully on their behalf that it would not be for their interest to adopt

a

schome of superannuation which,

though suited to the climate and

circumstances of service in England, does not seem applicable to this count

The Right Honorable,

The Ford Manley,
