Sir,

I am directed by the Lords Commissioners of Her Majesty's Treasury to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 29th ultimo containing further information respecting the tenure by Mr Sharp of the property which the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty propose to acquire for the extension of Hong Kong Dockyard.

In reply I am to say for the information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty that, with the explanation now afforded, My Lords sanction the compulsory acquisition of this property through the Colonial Government at an estimated cost of $300,000, chargeable to the Naval Works Loan.

The Secretary to the Admiralty.

I am,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

(Sgd) E.W. Hamilton.
