It is with a feeling of deep disgust that I write to you from here.
When I was sent to England on leave since my arrival in Hong Kong, after nearly 4 years of hard work in the Colony, Mr. William and others told me that I had done my best by my ability. But each attempt that I have made to improve matters has brought down upon me the hostility and opposition of those in authority, culminating at last in the most disgraceful and barefaced attempt to malign those who took part.
Considering the manner in which I have been treated, I must apologise to a man who can hardly imagine the possible injustice that has taken place in this century.
I intend giving you a plain statement of facts, and this case demands a plain statement. The events in question have taken place during the last four months. In April last, the footman has been charged by the police.
The Chief Justice, Mr. William, took his habitual leave and proceeded to Japan. Whilst he was away, criticisms were made, and the same were made public, especially in respect of his friend, Mr. Sharp, a local K.C., on the publication of these articles, his many friends were annoyed.
