Sir,

No. 7 Police Station.

6th September, 1897.

224

I have the honour to make one or two suggestions and statements for your favourable consideration concerning the complaint against me about gambling.

If you would be kind enough to ask the man in Gaol who told him when I went to England and when I returned, also to ask the detective O.O. if the man Yeung Pat was ever seen speaking to me under any circumstances or going to my quarters. When I was doing duty at the Central, I on several occasions found fault with the man A Fat in the way he performed his duty and I thought that that was the reason he always seemed anxious to avoid me. I can safely say that I never spoke to the man Yeung Fat under any circumstances, only in the Charge Room through an Interpreter.

There was no occasion for me to mix myself up with the gamblers because I had plenty of money. I was quite independent and honest, none honester in the Colony, in the force or out of it.

Five days after I arrived in the Colony, I put ...

H. H. May, C.M.G.

Captain Superintendent of Police.
