I am directed by the Secretary of State
for War to forward to you, for the consideration of
Mr. Secretary Chamberlain, a copy of a letter addressed
to General Sir Reginald Gipps by Lieutenant General
G.D. Barker, C.B., on the 17th ultimo, requesting
"further recognition" of his services during the recent
plague in Hong Kong: and I am to acquaint you that the
Marquis of Lansdowne is of opinion that, as the services
rendered to the Colony by General Barker were not of a
military character, any recognition which they may re-
ceive would be a question for the Secretary of State for
the Colonies.
