Fir,

H. Harbor Department,

Hong Kong 28 April 1881.

I have the honor to report

that I have examined 989 Chinese intended passengers/Emigrants,

by the Steam ship Glamis Castle as to whether they were free from any Contract of Service whatever; and I find that they were free from any Contract of Service whatever.

A considerable number of the emigrants have been in Sydney before.

One only out of the List, No. 408, admitted that he had a written agreement in the form of a card. This man's name, Wong Jaisin, has been taken off the list as being under contract.

The Hon. F. Stewart, L.L.D.,

Acting Colonial Secretary,
