Government House,

Hongkong, 4th.October, 1910.

17. 24820

In reply to Your Lordship's

Despatch No. 226 of the 18th. of last August, I have the

honour to state that the procedure indicated by the Board

of Trade will be adopted in this Colony, but that the

Harbour Master is of opinion that it will not be effective:

unless the lists, or extracts therefrom, are published

here also. In the case of Chinese it will frequently be

impossible to identify the deceased man, and it is pro-

-bable that claims from alleged relatives would be very

numerous. Publication might nevertheless be tried.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient,

humble servant,

Amaga

Officer Administering the Govern

-ment.

THE RIGHT HONOURABLE

THE EARL OF CREWM,

80..
