As regards the insanitary nature of the fruits and condiments there offered I do not propose to be a judge, but feel confident that there are regulations in force
which would endanger the hawker's license if he were to sell articles unfit for food. From personal observation I can only report no apparent difference between the fruit sold outside our gates and what is exposed for sale outside other schools in the Colony.
Hawkers do not come in pouring rain. The blazing sun is not much considered by natives of Hongkong.
I should esteem it a favour if His Excellency would forward this letter to the sanitary authority together with or after previous correspondence, and have therefore sent it in duplicate, (C.R.O. Letter No 1242)
I have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most Obed. Servant
Robert Mattison
Head Master.
P.S. As several of our boys live at a distance over a mile from the College, some refreshment is necessary.

I have toned down what was said about a Board of Management,
as I see that in a despatch of 4 Feb. last on 1141 it was stated that there is no intention of putting the management of the college under a Board. Under altered conditions however I think a Board would be very advisable.
I have toned down what was said about the two men and put it in the confidential despatch; and in the second paragraph of that dispatch I have said something leaning towards Wright though not against Bone, in face of Lord Ripon's minute, whether it should be said.
