occasion the British Resident was good enough to address

the following minute to me:-

In my annual report on the State of Perak, after referring to the Staff, its cost compared with the direct revenue from mining, I wrote, "Never, after the most prosperous mining year in the annals of Perak has the Mining Department deserved more of the Government than during the year under review". You are leaving a fine record of hard and conscientious work behind you, and I wish you in my own name and that of the Government of Perak every success in your new sphere of duty.

(Perak, Mines paper, 1733/01.)

I respectfully submit that up to this time

my record was that of an officer who had satisfactorily

filled responsible positions. I believe that Sir John

Rodger, K. C. M. G. under whom I served for some years

would confirm this view.

After studying the educational problems of

Hongkong for six months, I was compelled to view the then

existing educational system very adversely, The alterna-

tive policy which I advocated aroused strong opposition in

in the late Bishop of Victoria, Dr Wright, Headmaster of Queen's

A

College, and in the greater part of the missionary body.

Details of this controversy will be found in the Blue Book

A

entitled "Correspondence arising out of the Report of the

Committee on ́Education", of which Committee I was Secretary.

It is sufficient for my present purpose to point out, that

my action in the matter exhibited neither fear of respon-

sibility or lack of decision; while the soundness of the

policy which I advocated, and which has been adopted,

proved by the fact that from that time to the present no

difficulties
