##

It is likely that half salary might be allowed to the late Chief Justice C. J. Adams up to the day of his death. As that event has occurred, I am the more inclined to think that his estate should be allowed half salary. I have confidently recommended that his half salary be allowed up to the day of his death. But we must wait for some official application or notice: at present Mr. Robinson has only derived the information from the newspaper.

I have recorded and forwarded to Mr. Parken a notice of C. J. Adams's death.

I think we may understand that Mr. Sandwell assents to the proposal that C. J. Adams's half pay should be granted.

Write to the Crown Agents to say that Mr. Sandwell has received notice that C. J. Adams was on leave and received in the Colony his full salary up to the date of his death on April 29.

Authorize the Crown Agents to issue his half pay from that date up to the 29th of April to such persons, legally entitled, as may apply to receive the same.

Prepare a draft to Capt. W. H. Adams informing him that the Crown Agents have been authorized to issue the half salary of the late Chief Justice of Hongkong from the date of his death on being applied to for the purpose by his legal representatives.

Write to the Governor informing him of the death of Adams, the course taken, and asking him to take note.
