In reply to Your Excellency's letter of the 27th. ultimo, I am glad to be able to state that there is no objection to the site selected at Kowloon being used as a Naval Rifle Range so long as the land is not required for building or other important purposes.
I may mention, however, that should the Naval and Military Range be used at the same time the communication between the Southern and Northern portion of the Peninsular will be stopped. I Should be obliged, therefore, if such instructions being given to the Officer in charge of the firing parties as would ensure those desiring to cross over the grass in rear of the Range being permitted to do so.
I bave etc.,
(3a.) A.. E.. Kennedy,
His Excellency
Vice-Admiral Shadwell, C.B., P.. R.. S.,
