I have examined the accompanying Ordinance, entitled

An Ordinance to enable "The Trustees of Saint John's

Church of England in Hongkong and China

and I am of opinion that the Ordinance is one which is not contrary to

Saint John's Cathedral Church Ordinance, 1899, pro-

this Ordinance is not intended to alter or derogate from the

statutory powers conferred upon such body as regards the
