Hongkong, 14th. November, 1903.

I have the honour to forward you a let-

ter which I have received from the Chief Manager of the Dock

Company, accompanied by a tracing (marked "A") relating to

certain property which has been acquired by the Company at

Huughon and proposing to acquire and enclose certain portions

of the adjoining public streets.

2.

This matter was dealt with in 0.8.0.

1698/1900 and it was arranged that, subject to the approval of

the Secretary of State, the Company would be granted as an ex-

tension of their property the land covered by the roads ad-

joining the houses which they then proposed to acquire, a pre-

miun of 50 cents per Square Foot and Crown Kent pro rata with

that of bunghor Inland Lot 24 being paid for the area of such

roads.

8.

The Company have not succeeded in ac-

quiring all of the houses, but have partially carried out their

scheme and now desire to take up the corresponding area of

roads. I attach a tracing (marked "E") which shows more clearly

the portions of roads now applied for.

I submit that the Company be informed

that their present application will be granted subject to the

approval of the Secretary of State and to the following condi-

tions:-

The Colonial Secretary.

(a).

Premium at 50 cents per Square Foot, amounting in all to $8,709 to be paid into the Treasury
