The late Mr. Selang's appointment had no fixed term for the Cebong revenue.

In 1842 and subsequent years, he settled and might have enjoyed considerable leisure, but his duties were onerous for Tungkwun natives.

In Colduck's further despatch, it was stated that in addition to her own duties, she had consistently performed the duties of the Superintendent of Police.

This is perfectly clear, but I must note that he has been paid for his services having been rendered, and enjoyed the same advantages as other women.

Lieutenant of Police was employed at this port in colonial duty.

Dr. Mary, the Superintendent of Police, was an English lady.

The salary of the Superintendent was fixed at £500 per annum.

The salary of the Superintendent was due for the Colonial Department from 1853 at that date £312.

On opening the correspondence with reference to the reduction that has taken place in the Civil Establishments at Hongkong, it is striking that the salary was £... per annum and a few other compensations.

In Colduck, Pierpont, as Assistant Superintendent and Naval Officer, was employed in full proportion to that employed by his immediate Superior, the Superintendent, and to the Salaries of the other officers of the Local Government.

I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient humble servant,

Hughstonrelive (?) the melone, but I will conclude with your letter.
