I have the honour to inform that I left Hongkong on leave of absence, on sick certificate, by the mail steamer of the 15th January last, and arrived at Marseilles on the 25th of February in a very weak state, in fact much worse than when I left China.
I was advised by the medical men whom I consulted, and especially by Dr. Stents of the Steamer Péra, not to attempt to proceed to England until May or June, I therefore came here where I have relatives residing.
By the enclosed certificate of Dr. Millenger of Geneva you will learn that I am still in a state which renders it imprudible for me to travel at present, and even should I gain strength rapidly
