C.O. 9332138 2135 Ree 17 MAR 09

Government House, Hongkong, 12th February, 1909.

My Lord,

I have no option but to transmit at the request of the Chief Justice further letters on the subject of the rental of his house the Eyrie but I do so with much regret in view of the voluminous correspondence which has already been submitted to Your Lordship on this question and the final decision you have already given upon it.

2. The Chief Justice's letters speak for themselves, and I do not propose to comment on an already threadbare subject further than to observe that the statement in paragraph 4 that the primary object of the Peak Reservation Ordinance 'had to be abandoned' is not so far as my information goes an accurate one. In Paragraph 5 the contention that the refusal to exempt on the grounds stated "would make exclusion absolute in the case of this part of the Peak", has already been fully dealt with in

RIGHT HONOURABLE THE EARL OF CRETE, &C. &C. &C.
