from that time to the present - I have continued to perform the duties more or less efficiently.
The Colonial Surgeon writing of the Civil Hospital in 1874 was able to allude to the able supervision, activity and care of its superintendent & Wharry of whose knowledge and performance of his arduous duties I can speak with great pleasure" In 1875 he wrote "The working of the establishment has been exceedingly good under the able superintendence of Dr Wharry" and again in 1876 the Report says "the working of the establishment has been as good as it can be under the careful superintendence of Dr Wharry".
The working of the Civil Hospital as it went on thus and through the lapse of years appears to have produced a change in the opinion of the Colonial Surgeon it has made no difference in the conduct of the Civil Hospital except in so far as larger experience has enabled the superintendent to increase the efficiency of the establishment.
If there the Hospital was well conducted before I Wharry came to Hong Kong and for several years after his arrival he was able as the Head of the Department to speak of the Superintendent in terms of the highest praise, the conclusion that the Superintendent of the Hospital should now as his sole reward for long service submit to degradation of position and a diminished opportunity of usefulness is one which will hardly present itself to His Excellency the Governor as just or well founded.

In reply to your letter of the 10th instant in which by desire of His Excellency the Governor you inform me that His Excellency thinks my report on the proposed Hospital rules is well deserving of consideration and that the matter may now be allowed to drop.
I have the honor to reply that having carefully considered that Report what I find in it is another proof of that attitude towards me which I Wharry have long thought fit to assume and which has led to the complaints in my previous letters on which His Excellency has passed.

I reiterated that regret on perceiving all of the Superintendent's observations.
