In the event of any of the Commission visiting Hongkong I shall be glad to afford them facility for conducting their enquiry in every way in my power.
In conclusion I desire to express my entire concurrence in the answer returned by the Colonial Secretary to Question 12, relative to the revenue derived from opium in this Colony.
The financial side of the question is of extreme importance to the Colony, especially in view of the continued fall in the value of silver, which necessarily increases the unavoidable expenditure that has to be met by payments in sterling.
I have the honour to be,
My Lord Marquess,
Your Lordship's Most Obedient Humble Servant,
William Robinson
