sir,

Canton, June 9th., 1909.

The founding of a University at Hongkong is

a project which it has been Your Excellency's earnest and

benevolent purpose to set on foot, and I hear with the greatest pleasure of the enthusiasm in subscribing and the favourable prospects of success. I have myself ordered funds to be raised

to the amount of $200,000. This sum is now provided, and can

either be forwarded at any time or drawn upon by letter as

required; whichever Your Excellency finds convenient. Besides

this I am endeavouring to find further funds for the purpose

of placing them at Your Excellencey's disposal to help towards

the expenses of the University.

The degrees to be conferred by the University

however, are the subject of considerable public attention, and

while I am informed that Your Excellency's Government proposes

that it should be on a par with Birmingham University, I hope Your Excellency will be good enough to give me detailed informa-

-tion on what has been decided, in order that I may publish it

for the satisfaction of students and subscribers.

I avail etc.,

(Card of Viceroy.}
