Chief Justice,

I am wholly unable to understand why the Commodore (a Brigadier General) should take precedence of the Vice Admiral of the Station, and I trust that Your Lordship will entertain the idea of giving that precedence to the Naval Officer.

I have the honor to be, My Lord, Your Lordship's most obedient humble servant,

(Signed)

Governor.

"Princess Charlotte" at Hong Kong, 25th May, 1872.

I have the honor to submit for your consideration the following remarks on the subject of the precedence accorded to Vice Admiral Charles F. A. Shadwell, C.B., R.N.
