Members of the Legislative Council, all approve of the idea, and agree in thinking that the transportation from time to time of our worst criminals to Labuan would do more than anything else to put a check to the increase of crime in Hong Kong.

His Excellency Herbert Taylor Ussher, C.M.G., Governor &c. &c. Labuan
