The disadvantages under which I labour as a public servant of unblemished character, by way of bribes being received from the gambling portion of the Chinese Community. I regret that I am unable to forward this letter for your information at the time.
I further submit for your special attention that Mr Hung Ram-mung, First Interpreter, was pensioned off against his will at the same time with me in 1895, and who wishes to be recalled to the service. Comparison is hardly fair when drawn with those unfaithful servants who have been ordered to resign and through the generosity of the Government have received pensions.
I have severed my commercial connections, thereby depriving myself of an income which would have greatly increased at the time, whereas the others find themselves advantageously placed. As Interpreter in the Supreme Court during Mr. J. Dyer Ball's leave of absence, he has now been told that his services are no longer required by the Government, but that his pension interfered with his being called to the service again.

They are well placed in a wide field of commerce with a life-long support in their pensions and with the possibility of their ever being called to the service again, abruptly cut off from any commercial connection which they may choose.
