COP T.:

Your Excellency,

Submitted. As to the question of conveyance it is clear that the "Stanley" is not suitable on account of cost and launch hiring would be equally expensive. A boat such as Mr. Irving suggests might be obtained and it might also be used by the Staff at Taipo when not required by the Inspector of Schools. In this point Mr. Hallifax might report. The Staff at Taipo used to require a boat for the conveyance of provisions from Shatin, but the completion of the Taipo Road may render this unnecessary.

(Sa.) J. H. Stewart Lockhart, Colonial Secretary.
