I have the honor to enclose four testimonials taken from [illegible] and would specially refer to those of St. Thomas's Hospital London and Dr Redfern both of whom are eminent in their profession as Anatomists,

& Dr Mac Cormac,

Dr Horne's testimonial shows that I assisted him successfully for period of fifteen months; and that of the President of my College, although it can only speak indirectly, be valuable in another direction of my professional attainments.

I am personally known to Mr Russell of the Civil Service, at present in this Country on leave of absence, and have learned from him what the duties of the Superintendent are, as well as the Emoluments of the office.

Should his Lordship be good enough to confer on me the appointment which I seek I should be prepared to proceed to Hong Kong at an early date.

I have the honor to be,

Your most obedient servant

Samuel Johnstone
