Hongkong, 20th. July, 1910.

I have the honour to inform you

that it was recently discovered that Dr. Jew Hawk, Resident

Surgeon at the Tung Wa Hospital and a Member of the Govern-

-mont Medical Department, undertook private practice among

the families of the Directors of the Hospital. It appears

irregularly by the

that an arrangement was come to

Directors and Dr. Jew Hawk some 2 years ago by which he

might accept fees for such practice if called in for pro-

-fessional advice. On Dr. Jew Hawk being told that he was

not entitled to such private practice he tendered his

resignation as he said he could not support himself and

his family on his present salary. The Directors of the

Hospital have intervened on his behalf and asked that

his salary be increased and that he be allowed private

practice to an unlimited extent. In view of the fact

HE RIGHT HONOURABLE

THE EARL OF CREWE
