Hongkong, 25th. August, 1910.
My Lord,
Before Sir Frederick Lugard went
on leave, he approved of an endeavour being made to raise
money for building an Anatomical Laboratory for the Hong-
-kong University by an appeal to the Chinese guilds of the
Colony.
2.
This appeal has been made, and
the Registrar-General reported on the 9th. ultimo that a
sum of $14,365 had already been placed to the credit of an
Anatomical Laboratory Fund with the Hongkong and Shanghai
Bank, and that enough had been collected, though not yet
paid in, by the Treasurer of the Pawnbrokers Guild to
make a total of $15,000. The Colonial Secretary discussed
this matter with Dr. Ho Kai and the Registrar-General on
the 22nd. ultimo, and it was agreed that $25,000 could
safely be reckoned on as the total sum which the sub-
-scriptions might be expected to reach. I am, therefore,
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE
&c. s
THE EARL OF CREWE,
