The text appears to be a historical document related to Hong Kong, with various discussions and decisions regarding salaries and appointments. Here is the proofread text in HTML format:

It had been appointed in accordance with paper of particulars (in 114200) on the old salary of $2500 despite forwarding the Estimates that ...

Attention had been drawn to the proposal to make the salary $3600; it was done at the instance of Mr. Chapman. If attention had been drawn to it, it would have been overlooked.

The world has saved by Solane. I would have done the increase point, but it was not done.

Under the new rule as to Exchange for leave salary and Pension, it is stated that under the circumstances, Mr. Chapman's Landslich received the higher rate.

M. Chapman receiving the approval of the higher salary, it was subject to the above-mentioned new rule: Von Lockwood was informed that the higher salary was approved.

C.S. Sung. Surd. 2 Sep. So write substituting the word in brackets for them.

It was wrong of Sir Geo des Voeux to put the higher salary on the Estimates after the officer had accepted the office on the lower salary of $2500 and say nothing about it.

Why raise it immediately to $3600? If the salary had been fixed before Mr. Chapman's appointment, we might have avoided this.

It is against Mr. Hamilton's theory that the salary was raised for the benefit of the office, and efforts were made to support Mr. Chapman, who would not accept a salary of $2500 with a family.

We are, of course, bound to sanction the increase merely because it is on the Estimates, Mr. Chapman having agreed to accept $2500, but it would be impolitic not to do so.
