My Lord,
Referring to previous correspondence on the
subject of the extension of Robinson Road, Kowloon, to the
North, last dealt with in paragraphs 1 to 3 of my despatch
No.86 dated the 9th. April, 1906, I have the honour to
transmit a copy of a letter from the Director of Public
Works submitting certain proposals for dealing with Kowloon
Inland Lots Nos.755 and 757 formerly sold to the late Mr.
F. R. Belilios, C.M.G., the location of which it has been
necessary to change to secure the full width of 100 feet to
the road about 500 yards beyond its junction with Gascoigne
Road North. The enclosed general plan of Kowloon and the
detailed plan of the existing and proposed arrangements
accompanying Mr. Chatham's letter together with that letter
sufficiently explain his proposals which I am satisfied are
advantageous. As they involve the sale of small additional
areas of land without auction Your Lordship's sanction to
them is necessary and for this sanction I now apply. RIGHT HONOURABLE
2.
&c.
THE EARL OF ELGIN, K.G.
