#holl is likely "whole". The text appears to be a historical letter, so I will correct and format it accordingly.

The Persons for whom I beg to state are myself, my Wife and Young Children. I take the liberty of requesting the usual Allowance of Outfit and Passage for the purpose of obtaining the requisite Outfit for the Voyage.

I should be obliged by being informed whether the same will be provided or not. I beg also to be furnished with a description of the Lodgings and other Allowances granted to Officers of the Colonial Government at Hong Kong, that I may understand what Allowance formed part of the Emoluments of the Office which I have been appointed to.

I would respectfully draw your attention to the Vite of my Predecessor, which refers to the Allowance granted to Contractors and Superintendants, but a Person who works for the Superintendant is not a Contractor.

I have the Honour to be Your Most Obedient Humble Servant, Niblett.
