I had been acquainted for many years, and of whose personal character I had received accidentally some evidence, had passed a very satisfactory and creditable examination in Police Law, and Oriental Language, and had been appointed Sub-Inspector of one of the Police districts there, I wrote to him in Scinde, and had been seeking information as to the possibility of obtaining with the sanction of the Indian Government 100 Sikhs, trained to Police duty, and also inquired whether he would be willing to serve here as their head, and take part generally in the administrative Police duties of the Colony.

Mr. Creagh's reply was very favourable as to the practicability of obtaining the desired recruits from Scinde, and he himself likewise expressed his willingness to take service under this Government.

I therefore laid the whole question before my Executive Council, who agreed with me in thinking the opportunity a good one for improving the Police. I consequently communicated with the Indian Government with a view to obtaining permission for Mr Creagh to transfer his services here for a time and enlist 100 Sikh Police whom he might lead to Calcutta, and there embark with them for Hongkong. I also enclose the letter of instructions to Mr Creagh.
