sum of

a

statement from Mr. Mudie fully

explaining the case

and a detailed account. I should

add that Mr. Mudie himself is

on a moderate salary,

and has a

dependent wife and children to

support, I can but believe that

when the circumstances

of the case

are laid before the family of Mr. Berkeley they will take care that

Mr. Mudie is not allowed to lose

by the generous part he took in

saving their relative from

the disgrace to which he had laid himself open by what I can but

regard as his very

dishonourable conduct.

I ought to add that

owing to a pressure of

business some delay

has occurred in transmitting

this correspondence.

I am,

Sir

Yours faithfully (S*) S. Brown

Surveyor General to the Government of Hong Kong.
