Hongkong, 28 November 1881.
With reference to the case now pending in the Supreme Court, in which you are the complainant and I the defendant, I herewith assure that, though I was acting in good faith in what I said on the subject mentioned in the petition filed in the Court, and wrongly believed myself at the time to be acting simply within the sphere of my duty, I do now, from the view I have now taken of the case, unhesitatingly admit that the substance of the allegations against yourself, specified in the petition, is not true and I therefore beg to withdraw what statement I made and apologize for having made them.
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your Obedient Servant,
