I have the honour to report that Mr.F.G.Machado,
Postmaster at the Shanghai Branch Post Office, will retire on
pension on the 15th.of May, and to recommend the appointment to
the post of Mr. W. J. 50lly, Senior Clerk in the Hong-Kong Post Office, on the same salary, viz.,$2,880 per annum.
Mr. Solly is a deserving and capable officer and
has over 9 years service under the Colonial Government of
which 6 years have been spent in the Post Office.
2. If you approve of this appointment there is
T
no clerk in the Post Office whom I can recommend to succeed
Mr. Solly, and I therefore consider it extremely desirable that a thoroughly trained Post Office Clerk, who has had experience in the General Post Office in London or in some other large
and busy Post Office, should be selected for the post.
The Senior Clerk has the general supervision
of the whole of the subordinate staff at the Post Offiee, and
to do so efficiently it is in my opinion essential that an officer who has technical knowledge of the working of a Post
