I have examined Mr C. V. Ledas, Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, Hongkong, and have the honour to report that he is at present in good health and to all appearances is capable of performing his duties as he ever was. But in view of his medical history during the last six years, his somewhat feeble physique, his proved liability to recurring and disabling attacks of dysentery, and of the intimation contained in Sir Henry Blake's letter herewith returned to the effect that the duties of the Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, Hongkong, are to extend to the active supervision of veterinary matters in the New Territory - I do not consider it probable that were Mr Ledas to return to Hongkong that he would remain in vigorous health during the hot season.

I am,

Sir,

Your obedient Servant,

A. Manson.
