I am directed by the Secretary of State for the Colonies to
inform you that, subject to your being passed by the medical adviser of this Department as physically fit for service, he proposes to select you for probationary appointment as Nurse in the Civil Medical Dept., Hongkong
with salary at the rate of $600 a year rising to $840 by annual increments of $60 with board, uniform, lodging, attendance & travelling Allowance.
You will be under the orders of the Principal Civil Medical Officer and of the doctors of the Hospital.
Your services will be required chiefly for private Nursing, but you must also be prepared to take work in any of the Hospitals of the Medical Department and to act as a monthly nurse when required to do so.
You will be required, if appointed, to give security to the extent of responsibility attaching to your office.
It is to be understood that your engagement is for not more than three years from the date of your arrival in the Colony; and that, if it is established to the satisfaction of the Governor that you are not qualified for efficient service there, the Governor, subject to the confirmation of the Secretary of State, will have full power to cancel your appointment at any time within the said three years without giving you any further compensation than a passage back to England, which will be granted only if the Governor is satisfied that you have, by your good conduct, deserved it.
If not previously terminated, the appointment will cease at the end of the said three years, unless it be expressly continued; and if you are granted a free passage to this country it will be on condition that you refund to the Government of the Colony a sum equal to the value of the passage money.
It is also to be understood that your services will be available for any duties upon which the Governor in the interest of the public service, may think it desirable to employ you, and that it will be within his discretion to require you to perform such duties.
It will be necessary for you to express your acceptance of the conditions stated in the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs of this letter before your appointment is confirmed.
