I note with appreciation his Excellency's generous offer to contribute $50,000 for the purpose of erecting new buildings.

No. 168 1907 22 June HONG KONG Despatch No. 26441.

(Subject.) REC 605 DESPATCH. C.O. 26441 IR LG 25 JUL 07

Re: calculations of the loss, they are through. Further to previous Paper. Reports - amounting to $1082.15, which has been recovered from security. As to this responsibility.

WD & 4, (75) --59087-95000-11-0

Further to subsequent Paper. Copy correspondence with To G.N. Arque in the matter.

The Fiddes Lancas (Minutes.) I think they have a rather severe case to put up a written defence, which seems very reasonable. And the money matter is of great importance.

I affirm proposal to write off the amount as a matter of accounting. I should not have thought that it was necessary. If it is recovered from the balance, Mr. Wai Lam in 279/1506 ought equally to thank her written off, but it is not, the amount written off being the deficit after his security had been realised.
