I have the honour to return, with some

notes and corrections, the pamphlet on Hongkong which accompanied

your Confidential Despatch of the 29th April.

2.

The most cursory perusal of the print

shows that it is of very little value, and I would suggest,

since you invite my criticism, that it should be entirely re-

written by some Military Officer on the spot who has the

requisite local knowledge.

I have the honour to be,

Sir,

Your most obedient

Humble servant,

Amaz

Officer Administering the Government.
