Hong Kong 202 DESPATCH. 15192 (Rec'd 14 JUL 97) No. 15192

(Subject.) Dep. Supt. of Police & Asst. Supt. of Fire Brigade. Offer $225 monthly. Funds will be sufficient.

(Minutes.) W. Lucas

This is $2,700 a year instead of $1,800 which we have offered on 13757. The latter is not high pay, but if M. Wynne is willing to come for it, I don't see why we should increase it.

? Wait for reply to our letter in 13757 $200 a month.

Write & raise the offer to 2400 dollars, I thought the $18... too little without compensation allowance.
