Su Richard Graves MacDonnell's Despatch No 172 of 13th December 1866

(Copy).

Dear Sir Hercules.

275

Knowing the deep interest that you have always had in the establishment of the Hong Kong Mint, an interest that I have largely shared, and participating, as I do, in your conviction of its ultimate success, if properly administered. I cannot refrain from writing to you a little in detail respecting its present position, from my own observation during my recent visit to the Colony, I cannot shut my eyes to the fact that the fair play to which so important an undertaking is entitled, is at present not dealt out to it.

His Excellency Sir Hercules Robinson.
