RES

RE: 28 JUL 06

Goverment House,

Hongkong, 25th. June, 1906.

Referring to my Confidential Despatch of the

7th. July, 1905, I have the honour to transmit ten copies

of the Report on the Hongkong Volunteer Corps for the year

ending the 31st. March, 1906.

2.

The total strength of the Corps was on that

date 274 against 269 on the 31st. March last year. The

report shews that the general efficiency was well maintain-

ed throughout the year and Major-General Hatton has express-

ed himself well satisfied.

3.

The Hongkong Volunteer Reserve Association

continues to make most satisfactory progress, the member-

ship increasing by 76 to a total of 230 during the year un-

der review. Of these the 80 most efficient members put in

on an average 16.95 attendances at the ranges and made an

average score of 47 out of a possible 70 for each 14 shots.

The remaining 150 put in on an average 5.87 attendances and
