I also enclose the testimonials of Mr. Frank H. Allen for the appointment of superintendent of the Coining Department. This gentleman having been long personally known to me, I have the greatest confidence in recommending, as fully as I can endorse all that may be said in his favour.

I have arranged with Mr. Hamilton of the Messrs. J.

I enclose also two letters for the Right Honorable E. Cardwell handed to me by Mr. Allen.

Your obedient Servant,

The Master of the Mint,

Hong Kong.
