RECE 6 APR 07)

Government House,

Hongkong, 8th.March, 1907.

561

In a Despatch of even date I

have recommended to Your Lordship the promotion of Mr. H.

H. J. Gompertz, Assistant Colonial Secretary, to be First

Police Magistrate. Should this recommendation be accepted

I have the honour to propose that Mr. Cecil Clementi should

receive the Class II appointment thus rendered vacant. This

Officer's record of service is given on page 208 of the

Hongkong Civil Service List. The emoluments of his present

substantive appointment that of Assistant Registrar-

-General are $3,600 to $4,200 with Exchange Compensation.

2.

The date of his first appointment

as Cadet is subsequent to the dates of the appointments of

Messrs. Messer, Hallifax, Kemp, Johnston, and Wolfe. Mr.

Clementi, however, passed his various examinations in

Chinese in an unusually short period and received an

appointment in Class III before any of the above-mentioned

Officers
