Sir,

War Office,

20 AUG 01;

London, S.W.

20 August, 1901.

With reference to Colonial Office letters of

the 15th and 17th instant, Nos.27235 and 28471, respecting the possibility of the services of Professor

W. J. Simpson being available for plague investigations

in Hong Kong, I'm directed by the Secretary of State

for War to forward for the information of Mr Secretary

Chamberlain a copy of a telegram recently received by

Mr Brodrick from the Premier of Cape Colony.

I am to enquire whether the arrangements

foreshadowed in this telegram would admit of Professor

Simpson's services being at the disposal of your

Department at a date sufficiently early.

No reply has yet been despatched by this

Department to Sir Gordon Sprigg's telegram nor have

any steps been taken to communicate on the matter, as

therein suggested, with Lord Kitchener.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

[illegible name]

Under Secretary of State,

Colonial Office,

S.W.
