of Being
able to prosecute my career
in China until superannuated; the recognition of my full term of Seven years,
and four months Service,
by Her Majesty's
Government,
conveyed to me in letter
from the Colonial Office,
dated 5th May 1860, now renders this hope reasonable, and inspires
me with an additional incentive to persevere.
Inquiry at the Peninsular and
Oriental Company's Office has been met with the information that all passages to China, by direct route are
engaged up to December next; but that arrangements made by the Admiralty by which I
may obtain a passage by the end
of the present month, by any routes, and with acceptance
of second-class accommodations where first-class may
be already monopolized.
I beg further to request that the Copies
of my Appointment and other certificates,
enclosures on
my letter to His Grace the Duke
of Newcastle, dated 28th February 1860,
be kindly returned to me. Medical
Certificates Nos. 1, 2, and 3 will, I presume,
be retained as
Office Vouchers, but these
documents from 4 to 17 inclusive are
certificates of position and character,
and
may be necessary to me hereafter.
They
may be forwarded via Bombay.
I therefore most respectfully request that application may be made to the Board of Admiralty for an order
for a Contract Passage for me to Hongkong
by any Steamer from Southampton in
October.
