I am happy to say that among the un-official Members only one change has occurred during the time I have alluded to. I refer to Mr. WONG SHING, whose period of service expired during the present year, and who desired, by reason of advancing age and the necessity of attending to business elsewhere, to be relieved from further duty at this Board. I recommended for Her Majesty's approval as his successor Dr. Ho KAI, of whom we have already seen sufficient to know the deep concern he takes in the work brought before us and to feel how efficiently he will strive for the welfare of those whose interests he is here to represent.
I have endeavoured, Gentlemen, to lay before you such information as I considered might interest you at the present moment. It will not be very long before we meet again when we shall take up, as it were, the threads of the work we are quitting for a while to-day.
In conclusion, let me thank you for the consideration you have shown me since I have been presiding over this Council, let me wish you a pleasant recess, and let me express the hope that we may all join once more in working, with increased strength, for the benefit of a Colony to which many have been indebted for good fortune in the past and to which may many be indebted for success and happiness in the future.
