Government Civil Hospital,

Hongkong, 22nd.. October, 1915.

Principal Civil Medical Officer.

sir,

In reply to your note regarding the refund of nine shillings to the Treasury, which was paid by the Crow Agents on my behalf for Medical treatment on my voyage outwards in July and August, 1914, and which His Excellency the Governor has

I cannot accept a cheque for a full month's salary, with this amount deducted, by doing so I should be acknow- -ledging a debt, which does not, or ever did exist.

This account has never been rendered to me at

any time. Your first note ordering me to pay same, before the

intimation end of the month was the first instruation I had of such a claim.

If the Crown Agents considered it my om private affair, why did they discharge it, without my instructions or permission? Then why have allowed fourteen months to elapse before moving in the

May I therefore give the following particulars

for your information and which I shall be glad if you will pass to His Excellency the Governor and if necessary to the Secretary of
