degree interfered with.

The Committee would further urge that the intended removal of a larger portion of the Garrison to Kowloon is a conclusive argument against the refusal of this site for public purposes, in a case where accommodation is so urgently required.

I have the honour, therefore, on behalf of the Committee to request that in the event of the Medical Military Authorities seeing no objection to the site being given to the erection of a City Hall, you will be pleased to grant them a certificate to that effect to be laid before His Excellency the Acting Governor along with the application for the ground.

Begging the return of the ground plan herewith sent;

I have, &c.
