MINUTE PAPER.

I think M. Bardwell's case

is a hard one & deserving of

kind consideration. It is

a question of Patronage.

As Her Majesty has agreed, it was

thought advisable to retain him at Hong

Kong - not justifiable

on any Royal grounds - but the

other arrangement appears to be drawing to a

close. I reply that Lord K. will cause a

note to be made

of the expression of Lieut. Buckle's desire to be re-employed in the

colony where the services of an

experienced Officer may be required, and that should

an opportunity occur his claims to employment will be considered with those of other candidates.
