(Minutes.) Private Secretary
Mr Wood has held the post of Office Assistant, Public Works Dept since 1891. Before he accepted this post, he had a very good commercial position as Secretary to Messrs Garry, Henry & Engineers.
He seems to have been somewhat rushed into his tricky appointment: Mr Chadwick assured him he would have a salary of from £400 to 500 a year, he was told nothing of the Widows & Orphans fund, or of some extra expense in insuring his life.
He was told nothing of the Cadet System & was assured that promotion would be easy if he gave satisfaction.
There seems to have been great pressure of work in the office since he has been in Hongkong, & he seems always to have shown himself an efficient and capable officer.
