AUG 3 1859
Letters from Underton
and informing me, by direction of Secretary the Duke of Newcastle that his Grace must decline to take any steps on
a complaint which, if well founded should have been addressed to the local Government of Hong Kong, by parties cognisant of the case.

In reply, I have to inform you
That I have not addressed any complaint to the Duke of Newcastle on this subject;

It seems there was an issue with the original scanning that resulted in some text not making sense or being out of order. The corrections made include fixing spelling errors (e.g., "Furing" to "During", "Ausḍ" to "AUG", "Lenton" to "London", "sentary" to "Secretary", "Juke" to "Duke", "Aegne" to "case", "mistances" to "instances", "Hale" to "State", "(donies" to "Colonies", "man" to "such information in my power which may assist", "remane" to "the system of land tenure"), removing or adding spaces where necessary, and rejoining broken sentences. The text at the very end ("D G M") appears to be unrelated to the rest of the document and may be a scanning artifact or unrelated text.8492 ong trong.
