Magistracy, Hongkong, 6th June, 1887.
Sir,
Referring to my letter WHH of the 16th May, 1887, I have the honour to report that His Excellency the Administrator — having considered the case in Executive Council — has decided that the prisoners shall be surrendered to the Chinese Government.
I understand that the ground upon which this decision was arrived at, was that if the magistrate had found:
The Right Honourable Sir Henry J. Holland, Bart., M.P.,
Her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State for the Colonies.
